New Year marks a time to make new resolutions towards trying to build a healthy, happy and better life, but Shaheer Sheikh entered 2023 after fulfilling a resolution of his own. The actor marked the penultimate day of the year by sharing a video of his three months transformation which led him to a fitter physique, and as soon as he did that, the video went viral on the internet. Recently, Shaheer Sheikh opened up about what led him towards this physical transformation and it is truly motivational.
While Shaheer was never overweight or fat, he believes that he was not in the state of health and body shape that he wants to be in, and that’s why he decided to undergo the physical transformation. Talking to Hindustan Times, the actor shared, “My goal was to get fit again, I was not overweight but out of shape. Last couple of years, I was not able to take care of my diet due to hectic schedules and travel. It was a little difficult to manage. But when some of my friends mentioned that I had gained weight, I decided it was time to get back in shape. In fitness, it is never about losing weight for me but getting fitter and healthier. Discipline is the key and one should follow a routine. Even if you are working out only five minutes a day, do it consistently.”

Shaheer practices yoga regularly, but for this transformation, he did weight training as well and went from 86 kg to 82 kg. He also insisted on the importance of food intake in fitness. He said, “I try to eat as healthy as possible. I try to detox every now and then. Work out for few months and then let go for the rest – I don’t want to deprive myself of anything. I have to be happy with what I eat. I can’t be cranky and in a bad mood because I’m not eating what I want to.”
The actor had earlier put on weight around 18-20 kgs for his role in Mahabharat and then lost it for Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi, but he insisted on how critical it is to do it naturally. He said, “If you are doing it the natural way, and taking your time, then it is worthwhile.” Currently Shaheer Sheikh is seen in the show Woh Toh Hai Albelaa, and apart from that he has also done many music videos, the latest being his video with Zahrah S Khan, Main Tenu Chadh Jaungi.
