Vicky Kaushal puts on 20 kilos for 'Uri'

Vicky Kaushal, who was recently seen in Rajkumar Hirani’s biopic on Sanjay Dutt, has bulked up for his next, Uri. The actor, who plays a soldier in his new film based on the Uri terror attacks of September 2016, has put on 20 kilos for his character. “Considering the kind of action he’s required to do and the stuff he has to carry as part of his character, Vicky had to gain considerable weight for it. Earlier, he weighed 70 kilos, and now, he’s 90 kilos,” says a source. 

Vicky, who has trained hard to build his physique, continues with his exercise and diet routine in Serbia, where he’s stationed for a marathon schedule of the movie. Since they are shooting nights these days, the actor has been doing cardio exercises before the shoot and also after packing up for the day in the mornings.
