“It took 7 months to gain 45 kilos”: Mandy Takhar

Mandy Takhar is a well-known actress, producer and director. She has made a remarkable impact on the cinema by bringing stories that were entertaining and inspiring. Mandy in her real life also proves to be a role model as she focuses on achieving goals that seem unachievable but she manages to achieve them with a smile on her face. Her upcoming film ‘Haaye Ni Meri Motto’ required her to gain “45 kg” and for an actress who is expected to be of a certain weight, that is an unimaginable goal. Mandy took the challenge head on and in 7 months she was ready to play the lead in the film. In this interview, Mandy revealed her difficult journey of those seven months and how she is coming back to her original weight.

We may believe that gaining weight is easy but Mandy revealed the hustle behind that and said, “Losing or gaining is easy if it’s a few kilos but even to gain 45kgs it took its own sweet time of 7 months”. Currently, the actress is in the process of undoing the weight gain and losing the weight can be very difficult. She said, “Losing weight is a process where the amount of sacrificing one has to do in terms of nutrition control can be quite testing. My taste buds want tangy and spicy food with carbs and that is exactly what one has to give up when on the journey of weight loss”.

Mandy is busy with many projects at the moment and is coming back with an array of different movies for her fans that are due to be released this year. Mandy believes, “With a goal in mind and a lot of discipline, everything is achievable” and we believe her because she has proven it, time and again!
