Prithviraj Sukumaran flaunts his abs; ‘Aadujeevitham’ star gets back to being fit!
For his new film ‘Aadujeevitham’, Prithviraj has undergone a dramatic physical transformation, a first of this kind in Malayalam cinema. The film is about a Najeeb, a migrant labourer who gets stranded in the deserts of Saudi Arabia. For playing the character, Prithviraj had lost around 30 kilos to achieve a malnourished look.
After being on a strict diet for close to five months, the actor is now slowly returning back to his usual self. Just a while back, he shared a new photo flaunting his abs after his regular work out session. Along with the photo, he has written a brief note about the struggle that he had to endure during the shoot days in Jordan. He also tagged colleague Dulquer Salmaan who has been inspiring everyone during these lockdown with his training photos.
Prithviraj’s post reads,
One month since we finished the last of the bare body scenes for #Aadujeevitham. On the last day, I had dangerously low fat percentage and visceral fat levels. Post that..one month of fuelling, resting and training my body has got me here. I guess my crew who’ve seen me a month ago when I was at my weakest, and way way below my ideal weight will be the ones truly surprised. Thanks to Ajith babu my trainer/nutritionist and Blessy chetan and team for understanding that post “THAT” day, shoot will have to be planned with enough time allocated for my recuperation. Remember..the human body has it’s limits..the human mind doesn’t! Dulquer Salmaan #TrainingDone 😎
After being in Jordan for over two months for the shoot of ‘Aadujeevitham’, the 58-member team returned back to Kochi only last week. They were stranded there for few weeks due to the Covid-19 scenario before they returned back in a special flight. Prithviraj is currently quarantining at a specially arranged accommodation at Fort Kochi.
