Kartik is playing India’s first Paralympic gold medalist Murlikant Petkar in the 'Chandu Champion'. He has gone through a massive physical transformation for his character. He has reduced his body fat from 39 percent to 7 percent. Yesterday, he shared a before-and-after picture of his transformation. Kartik's transformation into a soldier, boxer, and wrestler, is laudable.
While sharing his experience of preparing for the role in the film, Kartik told in a statement, "Its been a true test of discipline and dedication when I started building and maintaining a fit physique for 'Chandu Champion'. The film's lengthy shoot required me to stay in peak condition for months, pushing my limits daily to embody the character authentically. It wasn't just about looking the part; it was about living it every single day. The rigorous training regime involved early morning workouts, strict dietary plans, and continuous physical and mental conditioning."
Jointly produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Kabir Khan, the sports drama is helmed by Kabir Khan.
