Multitalented person from the Bollywood industry, Farhan Akhtar is currently gearing up for his upcoming movie ‘Toofan’. As we are nearing the release date, the star shared the training video from the time he was prepping for the film. He will be seen as a boxer in the movie which required him to go through a massive physical transformation.
It has been said that the star had to shed 15 kgs for the role. In the video, he was seen training alongside Drew Neal, a former world champion of kickboxing. He also shared a bit about the training period and mentioned, “Let’s start at the very beginning ..Throwback to March 2019 and still early days of training in the ring with @drewnealpt who pointed out that I’m still not relaxed in the shoulders and still not moving my feet to good effect..I’m actually just trying to not sit down between sets (didn’t tell Drew that though) ..Work in progress with progress being the work. #ToofaanUthega #21stMay ”

Farhan then added another video where he revealed how he took care of himself post-training. He mentioned, “Chill time.
Thursday Throwback- We trained hard 6 days a week .. hitting bags pads & body shields. One of the most effective ways to keep going was to take good care of the hands .. the little time spent doing this post-session ritual helped a great deal for the next one. As my Physio Dr Anand said ‘Train Hard but Train Smart’ ??”
