| | | Shorey piles it on | | | | Ranvir Shorey has been gorging on bananas, rice, potatoes and chocolates. Besides guzzling many pints of beer a day. All this for his next film. And he needs to gain weight. Fast.
Writer-director-actor Rajat Kapoor, Ranvir's mentor, has asked the actor to put on at least 12 kgs, to play the protagonist in A Rectangular Love Story.
Going an extra mile
Ranvir Shorey thinks the world of actor-director Kapoor and can't say no to him, no matter what. At last count Ranvir had already gained 12 kilos, "And is still gaining that girth fast. He's someone for whose film I can go more than an extra mile."
First-hand witness
The last actor who put on weight for an author-backed title role was Abhishek Bachchan for Mani Ratnam's Guru. I've been first-hand witness to Abhishek trying frantically to add tyres around his waist gorging on sandwiches and pastries.
"I know that feeling," Ranvir grins rubbing his swollen belly........ | | |
