Sidharth Malhotra understands that amends to one's physique are easily discounted when you are genetically less likely to pack on the kilos. "When someone is tall, it's tough to fill up the body and look bulky," says the actor. They say the camera adds 10 pounds, but when such artistes add even 30 pounds, it inevitably appears like a mere 20, given their lithe and agile frame. It's possibly because of this tendency that despite constantly bulking up and breaking down muscle for his cinematic endeavours, it's hard for Malhotra to showcase a dramatic alteration. That, however, is not the case with Marjaavaan. Looking bigger than he ever has since the release of Brothers (2015), Malhotra admits that a fair deal of old-school weight training, and a generous diet, were behind the making of his body.
