Prithviraj Sukumaran, who is garnering praise for the survival drama film ‘Aadujeevitham - The Goat Life’ underwent a rigorous physical transformation. The movie is based on the novel `Aadujeevitham`, one of the most popular best sellers ever from the Malayalam literary world, which has been translated into 12 different languages, including those that are foreign. Penned by noted writer Benyamin it follows the true story of the life of a young man Najeeb, who in the early 90s migrates from the lush green shores of Kerala in search of the fortunes in a land abroad. He finds himself forced into slavery as a goatherd in Saudi Arabia.
Cinematographer Sunil KS recently opened up about Prithviraj`s nude scene in the film for which the actor prepped in a disciplined manner. “For the naked scene, Prithviraj was fasting for three days, not even water on the last day; before the shoot, he took 30ML Vodka to drain the remaining water from the body. He was carried in a chair to the location. We needed to lift him from the chair before the shot.”
