Weight loss has become one of the most necessary factors to ace in Bollywood. In the recent years, a plethora of actors surprised us with the stunning transformations. Popular names like Ganesh Acharya, Bobby Deol, and Anant Ambani stormed the Internet with their new looks.
Now, a popular director turned actor has joined the list and he probably is the first of his kind as he achieved this feat at the grand 61 years. He is none other than Bollywood actor and filmmaker Satish Kaushik who has done a lot of work in the industry.
Satish has directed many films and has shown his skills as an actor too. We all know him for playing some really iconic comedy characters in Bollywood films. The interesting part of the story is that Satish has not faded away in all these years and is still continuing to work even at the age of 61.
He was last seen in films: Udta Punjab and Dishoom, and is going strong and has great plans for future. He believes that fitness is important to survive in the industry today. And that’s why he is now putting a lot of stress on staying healthy and fit. He, in fact, has reduced 25 kgs of weight recently transforming into quite a slimmer version of himself.
Due to the fitness, Satish Kaushik has achieved, he has also attracted many offers recently out of which he has signed 6 films. These films include Shaad Ali’s Soorma, Ashu Trikha’s Veeray Ki Wedding, Yamla Pagla Deewana 3 starring Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby, and Vipul Shah’s Namastey England.
When asked about how he managed to do this, the actor went saying that he managed to do this with the help of a doctor in Los Angeles named Christian Middelthon. Satish followed the diet prescribed by him which helped him lose all the flab.
He added, “I didn’t have a medical problem but even long walks at airports had become a problem and that would upset me. My energy levels had dipped after working without a break for 40 years. But today with the kind of films being made, you have to be fit to be seen in the same frame as GenX actors.”
Well, that’s how you revive a career that is in decline. After all, let us wait and see who else will surprise us with such transformation.
