Weight loss is infectious in Bollywood

May 20, 2008

Mumbai – Losing weigh is not only now restricted to obese celebrities any more. The fad is infectious on among Bollywood stars like Kareena, Ayesha, Bips and even veterans actors like Om Puri too.

For some time, veteran actor Om Puri has been frequently visiting a health clinic. ‘I had developed a paunch. When I saw myself in ‘Don’, I understood how ugly I was looking. I have been working on it. I’ve by now lost about 9 kg and intend to knock off another nine in the next few months.’ So what’s his formula? ‘Diet mostly, but I’m also taking medical help. 5 years ago I have under gone a back surgery, the same one that Shah Rukh Khan did. After that, I quickly gained weight. I needed to lose weight because it was affecting my knees.’ Actress Bipasha Basu, though, feels there’s an unhealthful tendency towards unimpeded weight loss bordering on anorexia in the industry.

Bips said: ‘I’m really concerned about all this unhealthy weight loss in our entertainment industry. For god’s sake, don’t starve yourself to stay in shape. It gives you a prematurely aged look. Eat, sleep and live well. And avoid getting obsessive about losing weight.’

Model turned actor Aryan Vaid, mean while, and make known that many actors obtain six-pack-abs falsely. ‘Most of them doctored their abs to make them look ideal in front of to the camera. There’s a lot of coloring and contouring going on to make the abs look prominent on those midriffs. Very few actors have genuine six-abs. I do,’ Vaid claims. ‘Forget six-abs. Eight-abs are in,’ says Dino Morea. Bollywood’s anti binging squad is certainly fighting to establish who’s the slimmest of them all. May the best anorexic win!
