Ram Kapoor (BCCL/Prathamesh Bandekar) My family understands the depth of my change, which extends beyond the physical transformation that most people notice first. While others focus on the visual shock of my weight loss, my family understands it’s a much deeper and personal journey - Ram Kapoor Ram Kapoor is making headlines with his impressive weight loss journey, having dropped 55 kgs over the past 18 months. However, he emphasises that the transformation wasn’t motivated by his career.
He shares, “I’ve been incredibly fortunate that audiences loved me even when I was overweight and didn’t fit the industry’s typical mould. At my heaviest, I was 140 kgs while working on Neeyat and Jubilee . Those roles suited my size, but I was unhealthy.
I’d feel breathless after walking just 20 steps. I was diabetic, had a foot injury and struggled even with basic movement. It was then that I realised I couldn’t go on like this.
” Turning 50 was a wake-up call for the Bade Achhe Lagte Hain actor. He says, “I have two children, and I felt the need to set a positive example for them by prioritising my own health. Over the last six months, I pushed myself to shed 55 kgs, bringing me down to 85 kgs.
The transformation is deeply personal.” ‘Believe it or not, I lost weight the old-fashioned way’ Transformations like these often spark speculation about surgeries and weight-loss drugs. Ram says, “Believe it or not, I did it the old-fashioned way, by changing my mindset.
