Kartik Aaryan Shares Jaw-Dropping Transformation Pics Ahead of ‘Chandu Champion’ Release

Kartik Aaryan has left fans astonished with his impressive transformation as he gears up for his upcoming biopic, ‘Chandu Champion’. On Friday, the ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2’ star took to Instagram to share stunning before-and-after photos showcasing his dramatic physical change, accompanied by a heartfelt caption.

In his post, Kartik revealed, “From 39% body fat to 7% body fat!! From being an ‘insomniac’ to turning into a ‘fitness enthusiast’, it’s surely a journey of one and a half years to remember for me. The life of the living legend Murlikant Petkar not only made me a stronger human being but also further instilled the belief that if you can dream it, you can achieve it… nothing is impossible. Pehle mummy kehti thi, ‘beta gym jao’ lekin aaj kal haalaat aise hain ki unhe call karke bolna padta hai, ‘beta gym se vapas aa jao.'”

The post quickly garnered attention, with fans flooding the comment section with praise and admiration. One fan commented, “All-time blockbuster movie,” while another simply wrote, “Love.” A third user added, “What a fighter.”

Earlier this week, Kartik opened up about the immense challenges he faced while preparing for his role as Chandu in ‘Chandu Champion’. “For me, it was incredibly challenging and discomforting. Swimming and boxing were never something I imagined doing. Combining all these elements in one film was demanding, and I had to learn them all professionally because my opponents were all professionals—wrestlers, swimmers, or real boxers. Matching their level was tough, so I worked really hard. This is the toughest role of my career,” Kartik shared.

He further elaborated on the intensity of his preparation, stating, “This has been a life-changing role for me, and I am genuinely proud of this film. I just hope that people come to the theatres to watch this film. And I believe, as I’ve said before, that this is the toughest film and role of my career. As you may have seen in the trailer, hard work is evident.”

Directed by Kabir Khan, ‘Chandu Champion’ narrates the inspiring story of Murlikant Petkar, India’s first Paralympic gold medalist in freestyle swimming. Kartik Aaryan portrays Chandu in this film, which promises to engage audiences with its powerful tale of resilience and determination.

Set to release on June 14, ‘Chandu Champion’ is eagerly anticipated by fans who are excited to witness Kartik’s dedication and transformation on the big screen.
