After gaining 10 kilos to play Bihari politician in Maharani, Sohum Shah adopts rigorous workout to attain lean frame for Silent

Sohum Shah
It will take Sohum Shah more than script readings to prep for his next, Silent. First things first, he will have to shed close to 10 kilos that he had piled on for Maharani. The actor plays a Bihari politician, which is reportedly modelled on former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav, in the web series. “Gaining weight is easy; you just have to keep eating, but losing the kilos becomes difficult. I am doing cardio, especially running, to lose the [excess] weight. I need to [achieve] a lean frame for my silent film. There are no dialogues, so I’ll have to communicate through my body. I am also learning dance for the film,” says the actor.
