Happy birthday, Aditya Roy Kapur! Admiring his fittest onscreen looks
What's the story
Aditya Roy Kapur is one actor who is known for his acting chops as much as the world obsesses over his charming looks.
From Malang to The Night Manager, the dreamboat, throughout his career, has played many characters that demanded him to be chiseled and toned.
On his birthday, let's admire some of his best onscreen looks ever.
Film 1
'Malang': Kapur brought in a lot of diet modifications
For his super ripped look in Malang, Kapur followed a workout training routine that featured yoga, 20-minute runs, Kalaripayattu, and other forms of martial arts.
Even his diet routine was altered to support his efforts. Per sources, his diet helped him bring his fat content from 17% to 9%.
Salt was cut down from all his meals to prevent water retention.
Film 2
'Rashtra Kavach Om': He followed a rigorous training routine
For this film, the actor indulged in a super strict diet and rigorous workout routine, so much so that he told IndiaToday that he had to "give up on life."
Roy Kapur was losing muscles in the action training and had to lift heavy weights in the morning to get them back. He was caught up in this spiral for four months.

'The Night Manager': Kapur worked hard for his swoon-worthy looks
Kapur's fitness coach Robin Behl told GQ India that the actor used to work out daily for at least 90 minutes to two hours, even after an overwhelming shooting schedule of 12 to 14 hours.
His daily exercise routine included strength and conditioning, calisthenics, hypertrophy, balance, flexibility, and movement.
Despite immense exhaustion, the actor didn't stop putting his best foot forward.

'Fitoor': The heartthrob trained for six months to look dreamy
To show off a sculpted body in Fitoor, Kapur trained daily for six long months and it wasn't a cakewalk.
During an interview, the man revealed that during his training, he ate very little and worked out twice a day. "It doesn't come easy," he said.
His routine was a mix of weight training, core strengthening, bodyweight exercises, and flexibility-enhancing training with cardio.
