Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal recently took to recounting the rigorous training and substantial physical transformation he underwent for his latest film, the much-anticipated action thriller ‘Crakk’.

Arjun Rampal’s most recent project, ‘Crakk’, showcases him in a light markedly different from his previous roles. Aimed at achieving a leaner and more nimble frame, Rampal’s preparation involved disciplined changes to both his diet and exercise routine. “For this role, I had to go way lighter and work on my agility. I swam every day in open waters to increase cardiovascular strength. Ran 10K thrice a week and ate clean,” Rampal shared about his intense regime.
Adhering to a strict dietary plan was also crucial, as the actor aimed to tip the scales in his favor. He further explained, “I had to make sacrifices to get in shape and tip the scale in my favor. I ate a lot of protein and followed a strictly veg diet thrice a week.” His dedication to the physical demands of the role did not go unnoticed as he diligently shared updates with his fans on social media, chronicling his journey through the making of ‘Crakk’.

During the production of the film, Rampal suffered a significant injury. “While shooting, I suffered from two slip discs and production kindly paused shoot for 2 weeks so I could recover,” he said. The incident underscored the inherent risks associated with shooting action-heavy sequences and performing demanding stunts.

The actor’s happiness was evident as he posed for photographs on the red carpet with his family.
