  • In an interview, when asked how he became interested in fitness, he said,

    Well, I started working out when I was in school. Like most people, I was also inspired by Salman Khan. However, back then, my dad had a pair of dumbbells, so I used them for my workouts (around 20-25 pounds). Also, my school in Kanpur used to have a gym, so I used to go there 45 minutes before classes to work out. I still remember that I used to bring an extra set of clothes for my early morning gym sessions. In fact, right from my school days, I was an avid reader of books on nutrition and fitness. It was only during college that the word fitness became a part of my lifestyle, and the rest is history! ”
