Fawad Khan is one the leading actors in the entertainment industry. As per reports in Times Of India, Fawad recently, revealed that he was hospitalised and his “kidneys shut down” following extreme physical transformation for his film The Legend of Maula Jatt, in which he plays a fierce prizefighter. Despite being a diabetic, the actor said he put on several kilos to bulk up and reach up to 100 kgs from his weight of 73-75 kilos.

Fawad was quoted saying, “It is not the best thing I did to myself. I would never do that again. I just made some questionable choices, which negatively affected me. There is a dark underbelly to all of these physical transformations and people should know that when you make these decisions, it is taking a huge toll on your health. And it happened. Ten days into it, I was hospitalised. My kidneys shut down,” he said in an interview with Something Haute, a Pakistani content creating platform.

He added that bulking up close on the heels of American actor Christian Bale, known to undertake extreme physical transformation for his movies like Batman, and Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, who did it for Ghajini and Dangal, affected his health negatively and took him three months to recover. “I am not Christian Bale but I tried to do what he does, even Aamir Khan for that matter,” he said.
