Ishaan Khatter has quickly become the newest Bollywood heartthrob. His sense of humour, which is evident on social media, along with his acting skills, has created a huge fanbase in no time. The actor, who rose to fame with his stint in Majid Majidi's 'Beyond The Clouds,' is yet to showcase more of his acting chops in Bollywood. As the actor turns a year older, let's take a look at some pictures that showcase his inspiring journey towards a fit, chiselled physique

Body transformation:

The actor shared this picture a few years ago when he was preparing for Majidi's directorial venture. After his debut, Ishaan got back to his workout regime and regained all the muscle.

More than weight-lifting:

Ishaan's workouts not only comprise weights and fancy gym equipment, but it's also dance based. The actor's love for dance is endless, and he has never shied away from it. "I tried different styles of dance. I started the day with basic ballet. Dancing is pure joy. It's always going to be the easiest way to burn calories. But it's so much more than fitness for me. Fitness is co-related but is, in a way, a separate passion of mine," shared the actor in one of his interviews.

Enviable energy:

In a media interaction, Ishaan Khatter had said, "We would train 12-14 hours a day for six days a week and sometimes all seven. I even tried barre work, yoga, gymnastics and rope mallakhamb. I took it very seriously. I was 10 times fitter by the end of that. I went all out in terms of my diet." Well, now we know what makes him look so fit!

Outdoor sports are fitness too:

Ishaan Khatter vouches for outdoor sports. If not shooting for his next project, and not reading something inspiring, Ishaan takes some time out to play and have some fun. Ishaan reveals that he has always been a fitness enthusiast. "Early on, I remember being outdoors a lot and playing games in the society with other kids. Then at some point, I got more into sports. Dancing was always second nature and eventually turned into a major passion by the time I was a teenager."

Is boxing a part of his regime?

Ishaan Khatter hasn't spoken about taking up boxing to keep fit, but this throwback photo is inspiring in every way! What do you guys think?
