Boney Kapoor’s weight loss gets the Internet divided: Ozempic or discipline?

Boney Kapoor is back in the headlines, and this time, it’s not for a film. The veteran producer-turned-actor has caught everyone’s attention with his dramatic weight loss, and the internet simply can’t stop talking about it. A few weeks ago, Boney shared some candid moments from his trips to Cannes and Phuket. While the scenic pictures were stunning, what really made jaws drop was his visibly slimmer avatar. Soon after, paparazzi revealed that the 69-year-old producer has shed an impressive 26 kgs, without stepping into a gym! Instead, it was all about mindful eating and disciplined choices.

According to a popular paparazzo account, Boney’s weight loss secret lies in his strict diet. Mornings start with fruit and juice, meals include jawar rotis, and dinners are replaced with light soups. No workouts, no fad trends, just pure consistency. By resharing the post on Instagram Stories, Boney subtly confirmed the transformation and the effort behind it.

While many netizens applauded his commitment and hailed him as an inspiration, others weren’t so convinced. A section of Instagram users were quick to raise eyebrows, speculating the involvement of weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro. One user sarcastically commented, “Bollywood, which struggled to lose weight for years, suddenly got thin with juice? Welcome to the Ozempic era.” Another pointed out, “Looking thin doesn’t always mean you’re healthy.”

Amid the mixed reactions, some also felt that Boney’s transformation made him appear older or even frail. But for those following his journey, this isn’t a sudden move. A while ago, Boney had spoken about how the late Sridevi, his wife, used to motivate him to lose weight before fixing his hair. Taking her advice to heart, he first shed 14 kgs before undergoing a hair transplant, a process he openly discussed at a press event.

Boney Kapoor made his acting debut with AK vs AK and was later seen in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar. While he continues to stay active in films, it’s his latest personal transformation that has everyone talking. Love it or not, Boney Kapoor is owning his journey and the spotlight that comes with it.
