Recently, his long-time trainer Kumar Mannava opened up about his preparation for the film. "He is preparing for Prashanth Neel's upcoming action drama and has shed nearly 9.5 kilos of muscle in just seven weeks," revealed Kumar, according to a report in TOI.

"Since the goal is to get lean, the workouts are more functional and cardio-based, with some resistance training. He trains early in the morning, with sessions ranging between 45 and 90 minutes depending on cardio or weights. Contrary to the usual protein-centric plans, he’s opted for a very low-protein diet as he needs to lose the muscle mass he has built over the years," Kumar added.
