Zarina Wahab wants Prabhas as son in her next life; Here’s why
Zarina Wahab is a veteran Indian actress known for her work in Hindi, Telugu, and other regional films. With a career spanning decades, she is celebrated for her versatile roles.
Prabhas underwent dual body transformation for the film and he was trained by ex-Mr World Lakshman.
“As Bahubali, Prabhas had to build a lot of muscle and for the son’s character, Shivudu, he had to look lean. His physique fluctuated for more than four years. That was difficult," Reddy, who won the title of Mr World 2010, said.

"Prabhas weighed almost 100 kg with his body fat percentage staying in the range of nine to 10. For the younger character, he had to build a toned body with minimal muscles,” Reddy added.

While describing a typical day in Prabhas’ life, the trainer said that a half hour cardio session was followed by an entire day’s shoot.
He followed a strict diet, eliminated all kinds of carbs and concentrated on proteins for Shivudu’s character, sources said..
“He would have six meals with egg whites, chicken, nuts, almonds, fish and vegetables are thrown in. For Bahubali prep, he had eight meals a day, carb-heavy with cheese and mutton. In the evenings, we had weight training sessions, which included deadlifts, squats, bench press and other rigorous exercises.” Reddy added.
Every 20 days, there was a cheat meal.
“He loves biryani, so he was allowed that. At times, he’d ask for junk food. I was strict but understood his cravings. I was continuously monitoring his food intake and workouts,” Reddy said.
Despite hectic schedule, the actor religiously followed his workout regime.
“He would shoot for hardcore stunts and by the end of it, be tired, but never missed a workout. There were days when we would start exercising at midnight. His dedication was amazing.” Reddy added.
