The journey of his transformation for the movie is one of resilience and hard work, as the actor had to undertake Marshall Arts training for the action sequences and get toned and ready for the part in just two months.
It was just not the look but the action sequences were also to be performed by him, for which he had to get fit.
On the first day of training he could’nt even do push-ups nor did his kicks got higher than an inch or two. But he was motivated and inspired by the likes of Mohammad Ali. He trained for 4-5 hours a day and by the end of the training was ready to perform all the fight sequences.
