    This is the diet Ranveer Singh followed for '83

    What's the story

    Almost a fortnight ago, Ranveer Singh had shared his look as Kapil Dev from his upcoming movie, '83, and must say, we were bowled over by the uncanny resemblance between the two.

    However, it was not easy for the actor to transform into the cricket legend.

    To tone down his body, he followed a special protein diet, along with exercises and net practice.

    Diet

    Eggs and oily fish used to dominate Ranveer's meals

    Talking about Ranveer's diet, his meal planner Anmol Singhal told Mid-Day that his food chart included eggs and oily fish.

    His love for Indian cuisine was also kept in mind.

    "We tried bringing variety into his food. Few of his favorites are jalapeño and crisp bacon omelette. Our signature mush comprised rolled oats, eggs, mixed nuts and fresh berries," he added.

    Replacement

    Ranveer's weakness, Nutella was replaced with avocado mousse

    Ranveer's sweet craving is no hidden secret, and Nutella happens to be the actor's weakness.

    So considering that, Singhal came up with a healthy variant for Ranveer so that he could enjoy sweets without feeling guilty.

    "We have cracked a healthy variant of Nutella for Ranveer - it is an avocado mousse, made of 90% dark chocolate chips and avocados," he said.

    Information

    Special chefs monitored Ranveer's diet during shoots in London

    Explaining why Ranveer was put on a protein-heavy diet, Singhal said that proteins would "help him cut the fat and increase muscle mass". Further, "the complex carbs boost his energy." Interestingly, one of Singhal's chefs also accompanied Ranveer to London to monitor his diet.

    Effort

    Make-up artists, technicians worked for two months for the look

    Earlier, director Kabir Khan had revealed how a special team of make-up artists-technicians worked for two months with different drafts to get Ranveer's perfect look.

    "It was difficult because we didn't want to get into prosthetics. In sports, you've to play all day long under the sun. After eight days involving long sessions, we were able to transform Ranveer into Kapil," Kabir said.

    Praise

    "Ranveer and Kabir are taking care of every small thing"

    Notably, Kapil has also lauded Ranveer's dedication for getting into the skin of the character.

    "He and Kabir Khan are taking care of every small thing. They are taking care of how I speak, my pronunciation. Ranveer thought that since I'm a fast bowler, I must be aggressive and he wanted to learn how I express my anger," Kapil said on Breakfast with Champions.

    Cast

    Deepika Padukone to play Kapil's wife, Romi Dev in '83

    Apart from Ranveer, '83 stars Ammy Virk, Saqib Saleem, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Pankaj Tripathi, Chirag Patil, Hardy Sandhu and others in the lead.

    The movie will also feature Deepika Padukone playing Kapil's wife Romi Dev onscreen.

    Interestingly, this will be Ranveer and Deepika's first movie together post their marriage in November 2018.

    '83 is slated to release on April 10 next year.
