Govinda wants to do action movies
Having made a career out of comic roles, Govinda now wants to switch to action. He is really working hard on
his physique and has got himself a martial arts and physical trainer. "I've done action films in the past like Hatya
and Shola Aur Shabnam. But they weren't full on action movies. I now want to do an action film with stunts of an
international calibre. I don't want to just plunge into it without being fully prepared. I've already lost a lot of
weight. But it isn't enough. I want to lose some more," said Govinda.
The actor recently discovered yoga and he says it has changed his life completely. "No matter what my schedule
is, I have to do yoga every morning. I can feel the difference within me. It's not about just losing weight. I lost a
lot of weight earlier this year when I was shooting in Bangkok with Suniel Shetty for Loot. No, yoga is about self
discipline, about toning the body. I feel myself losing inches around my waist. I feel fitter. I can get into tight
clothes without squirming."
So what is his fitness target? "I want to look as healthy, handsome and fit as Dharamji (Dharmendra) did in his
heydays. He has always been my role model. And now when I look at myself in the mirror, I see glimpses of him
in me. That makes me feel really good," the actor said. |
