'Unbelievable' is the word which strikes your mind when you come across the pre-stardom pics of these celebs. These eye-candy Bollywood icons were overweight before they hit the stardom. These celebs' 'Fat to Fit' story is as interesting as their rise to stardom. Here is our pick of top ten celebrities who shed pounds and worked hard for that perfect look.
Sonakshi Sinha, daughter of famous actor and politician Shatrughan Sinha was offered Dabangg by superstar Salman Khan. An overweight Sonakshi took the challenge and the result was for all to see when Dabangg released. Sonakshi is considered as one of the most beautiful and in demand actresses of the new generation!
A cute and chubby Bebo (as she is fondly called) went from the overweight lass in her debut film Refugee to a sie zero in Tashan. Her bikini body and size zero figure created national hysteria, making Indian audiences aware of the existence of size zero. She also made fellow actresses insecure about their weighty issues!
Sonam Kapoor weighed 95 kilos and was an obese child who piled on the kilos thanks to her intake of junk food! It was on mum Sunita’s prodding that Sonam decided to lose weight and began to take this new project seriously. She set a target of losing 35 kilos and today the actress has been super successful in her mission. Sonam is considered the most stylish actress in Bollywood today, having strutted her stuff on the red carpet at Cannes.
The obese singer had an emotional connect to food, consuming huge amounts in both happy and sad times. But it was when Adnan Sami weighed 206 kilos that he was given an ultimatum by his doctor. Unless he shed the weight, he would not survive beyond six months. That’s when Adnan took the challenge seriously and lost 130 kilos with the help of surgery and a strict diet and exercise regime. Today, the results are for all to see.
Son of famous producer Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky wanted to act in films like all star kids. But the one big problem that prevented him from doing so was his weight problem. A determined Jackky went abroad to shed all the kilos and made his acting debut with the film Kal Kissne Dekha, having lost a cool 60 kilos! Today, Jackky’s chiseled features stand out.
Esha Deol will be more than happy to forget her fat days when she first debuted in Bollywood. But everyone started noticing a slim Esha as she donned a bikini for Dhoom, causing people to sit up and take notice of her! Esha has maintained her weight ever since.
Sameera Reddy is one actress who has taken to fitness very seriously. This overweight actress has toned her body and lost excessive weight over the years, making it hard for fans to believe that this is the same Sameera Reddy who at one time called fat.
Rani Mukherjee’s weight has been like a yo-yo, swinging from one extreme to another. From her initial Kuch Kuch Hota Hain days, Rani was considered bold for wearing short skirts in spite of her big frame. This continued for a while until Rani decided to do something. She began to look petite in films like Saathiya. Her weight has been the topic of discussion ever since, with Rani going from fat to slim ever so often!
She drew flak for being overweight in her debut film Veer opposite Salman Khan. And Zarine Khan took matters to heart. Her considerable weight loss for her special song ‘Character Dheela’ in the film Ready was much appreciated. But Zarine was still far from her target. In recent times, the actress has gone on to shed oodles of weight as seen in the film Houseful 2 and Zarine seems to pursue her target.
To play the role of Parma in his debut film Ishaqzaade, star kid Arjun Kapoor had to work hard on his looks. Motivated by fitness buff Salman Khan, Arjun initially weighed 170 kilos but managed to shed all the excess weight! And today, Arjun looks dapper and his abs are killer!
