Mehul Vora is Ronit's martial arts (kick-boxing) coach:)
With the Prince of Calcutta joining the growing list of celebrities jumping into the kickboxing ring, this form of martial arts that evolved in the United States in the 1970s has become today's sport in town.
"This full-contact karate has become so popular in such a short span of time because it is effective and produces instant results. A three-month stint in kickboxing increases fitness level, raises stamina and improves reflexes and concentration," says Mehul Vohra from Mumbai.

And Vohra should know, for he trained Akshay Kumar in Thai kickboxing for Seven Deadly Arts, a series on National Geographic Channel, and is training small-screen celebrities like Ronit Roy and GenX stars-in-waiting like Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul and Shatrughan Sinha's son Luv.
