How Shiboprosad shed 10 kilos for Bohurupi!

Shiboprosad Mukherjee, known for his dedication to his craft, underwent a remarkable transformation for his role in the 2014 film Ramdhanu. To embody the character of Laltu Dutta—a stressed parent striving to get his child into an English medium school— Shiboprosad adopted a rigorous routine, which he humorously described as "eating rice thrice a day and sleeping like a log."
A decade later, Shiboprosad, once again collaborating with director Nandita Roy, took on a challenging new role in Bohurupi. This action chase drama required him to portray a bank robber, demanding a significant physical transformation. To prepare, Shiboprosad lost 10 kilos, adopting a disciplined diet and workout regimen.

Shiboprosad’s Diet:

• Early Morning: 1 cup of Darjeeling tea with a handful of dry fruits
• Breakfast: 2 rotis made from oat flour, boiled vegetables, and 2 egg white omelettes
• Lunch: Quinoa, homemade sabzi, and 2 pieces of fish
• Evening: A handful of chana
• Dinner: Boiled egg salad with cucumber and sabzi made from lauki or papaya

Shiboprosad’s Workout Routine: Shiboprosad’s fitness routine includes stretching, walking, free-hand exercises with resistance bands, and yoga. “I work out for about 30 minutes every day without exception. Fitness is a daily commitment, so even while traveling or on holiday, I maintain my routine and carry my yoga mat,” he explains.
During the shooting of Bohurupi, Shiboprosad faced an unexpected challenge. He was injured in an accident while filming a chase sequence and had to be hospitalized. Despite being sidelined for a month, he managed to maintain his weight and physical condition crucial for continuity in the film. Once his doctors cleared him, he diligently pursued physiotherapy and resumed shooting precisely after a month, demonstrating his unwavering dedication to the role
