Aditya Roy Kapur
Just when the nation tried to label Aditya as the chocolate boy next door, the versatile actor left cinelovers with his massive physical transformation for his blockbuster release Malang. A dark thriller which won the audiences with its unpredictable and edgy storyline, Malang turned out to be a game changer for Aditya. It was impressive how the actor underwent a massive physical transformation to perform deadly, high octane action sequences in the film wherein Aditya was seen in two extremely distinct looks in the film, one being lean and the other being a bulky avatar. Even for his next Om, Aditya has worked hard to achieve the desired look.

Known to be a director’s actor, Ranveer has time and again undergone physical transformations for his role in various films. The actor had worked really hard on his body for Rohit Shetty’s cop drama Simmba and underwent weight training to attain a beefed-up body. And yet again, not too long ago, Ranveer worked hard on his physical appearance and looks for his upcoming film 83, for which he developed a lean physique. We hear that besides the intense workout sessions, the actor also had a meticulous diet regime in place for the same.
Ranbir Kapoor
Ranbir has earned himself a spot in every top filmmaker’s wishlist with his performances. The actor who will be next seen in Brahmastra, opposite girlfriend and actor Alia Bhatt, underwent a solid physical transformation for his critically acclaimed film, Sanju. In order to get the required bulked up look for the Sanjay Dutt biopic, Ranbir used to have eight meals a day and woke up at 3 AM to drink a protein shake, along with intense workouts.
Vicky Kaushal
