Director Ramesh Sippy of ‘Shimla Mirchi’ wanted Shakti Kapoor to lose weight for the upcoming film ‘Shimla Mirchi’ and to our surprise, Shakti lost 8kgs for his role.
Shakti Kapoor started going to gym with his daughter Shraddha Kapoor and if we believe the reports, it is said that he also starved for two months with improper diet to get into shape. Ramesh approached the actor with a mindset that only Shakti could do justice to the desired character in the film.
It is said that Shakti went through a rigorous schedule, training and preparations for his role and his work only startled and amazed Ramesh to his dedication and commitment to the venture. The movie also casts Hema Malini, Rajkummar Rao and Rakul Preet Singh.
