Actor Gurmeet Choudhary is known to give it his all for every performance that he takes up. Shubho from the film Shubho Bijoya is no different. However, Shubho required more out of Gurmeet in the sense of mental and physical training. This is because even though Shubho is seen as a much sought after fashion photographer in the film, which meant smart blazers, six pack abs, and a man on the go.
Halfway through, you see him going through a transformation that takes him from a confident man to a visually impaired person. Whereas one can train physically to get into shape for a certain role, from following a strict diet and workout regime to ensuring that your 6 pack abs are in place on the days of shoot, but in order to play someone who has lost their vision, that takes mental training that can be emotionally draining for any actor.
