“When we started the preparations for Ghazi, we were still shooting for Baahubali, so there was a large difference in my body weight,” Rana said adding that he had take a long break between the two shooting schedules to alter his look.
“For Ghazi, I had to turn vegetarian for two months to lose the muscles. I had to stop lifting weights and turn to cardio vascular exercises. Since I'm also a licensed scuba diver, and most of the film was shot under water, my training helped me to stay agile and fit,” he said.
