The actor, who is on the chubbier side, has taken up a diet regimen, and goes for daily gym sessions. The actor, who has entered as Aparichit Dev in Kasamh Se, needed a flamboyant look. Unlike his character in other serials, Ronit was supposed to sport a young look. So Balaji Telefilms asked him to lose the extra pounds. A devoted actor that he is, Ronit took the advice seriously and started attending to his health. Says Ronit, "I have always been health conscious, but yes, Kasamh Se has been an inspiration. I have been paired opposite Bani (played by Prachi Desai) who is very youthful and fashionable. So, I was supposed to be physically fit unlike my characters in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kasautii Zindagi Kay where putting on a little weight was okay." He further adds, "As I entered multiple serials, my daily life got messed up as I was busy shooting day in and day out. Naturally, I could not concentrate on my health. Moreover, the improper diet on the sets made things worse," he adds. Now Ronit wakes up early every morning. He starts with cardio vascular exercises for 45 minutes then he hits the gym for a daily dose of physical exercises. "Although I shoot till 11.30 pm, I wake up very early so that my routine of physical exercise never goes haywire," he says. He has become more diet conscious. "I have only home-made food. So, my wife Neelam packs a dabba for me everyday. I am a vegetarian, but I avoid fattening foods like rice, wheat, potato and oily stuff," he adds. Although not very fond of juices, he has a glass of juice every day as it is very essential for good health. "I guess as an actor I should always try to reinvent myself. So, losing a bit weight and slimming down is just a part of the psychology," he says.

Great article! Thanks a ton for sharing it anishma24 👍🏼

Health and fitness is a definitely an important issue and it's great to see how Mr Ronit Roy has managed to keep himself in great condition. At 43 he looks a lot better than a lot of people much younger than him - most of my friends are in their late 20's and 30's and RR is in much better condition than them! 😆

Good health is definitely a way of adding longevity to an already flourishing career 👍🏼

It's also great to see that he is a vegetarian... just like me! 😃

Without taking a knock at Mr Ram Kapoor, I do see Nina's point... it is kinda amusing! 😆

If even Mr Ram Kapoor was able to get himself into good shape, then I guarentee that he would feel 10 times better and the results on screen would be even better.

I hope all actors look after their health because it's definitely a tough job with long hours.

God bless.
