Angad is losing it! - Article

Steamed fish, grilled chicken and tossed vegetables is what he survives on. The boring bland food has become Alekh alias Angad's staple diet. It all started a few months ago when Angad was called in for a meeting at the Star Plus office along with Rajan Sahi, the director of the show. The topic of discussion was Alekh's look in the show. "I was told that I look a bit heavy on screen. Both the channel and the director suggested that I should lose some weight," he recalls.

On demand, Angad decided to sport a leaner look. "I've been eating very small and low fat meals. I've been slogging it hard in the gym to achieve a better and toned body." And the results are already showing. Angad who recently won the best actor award is looking great. "My co-stars and well wishers have been complimenting me and that feels great."

The channels are now personally looking into the 'look' aspect of its stars. "We have to look the character," says Ram Kapoor. Apparently, the Kasamh Se actor has been trying to lose weight from the time the show first went on air. "Ram's fat is very stubborn. He tries but it doesn't help much," says his wife Gautami. But Zee TV has made it very clear that they need a leaner protagonist in their show. We hope Ram is listening.
