Rajkummar Rao has been bulking up for Badhaai Do. If the picture he shared from a gruelling weight-lifting session is any indication, he has been working out in the right direction. The actor has been training for over a month for Harshavardhan Kulkarni’s film, co-starring Bhumi Pednekar.

A month later, Rajkummar treated fans to his stunning photo, showcasing his chiselled physique. He penned a thoughtful caption which read, "Bachpan me suna tha mehnat ka fal meetha hota hai or fal jitna meetha khana hai, mehnat utni hi krni hoti hai. #BeMehnati" (I heard as a child that hard work bears sweet fruits and the sweeter you want the fruits to be, harder you'd have to work. #BeHardworking)"

A few weeks on, Rajkummar shared another snap on Instagram, in which he soared temperature with his toned built. Rao was seen sporting a shirtless look, which was captured in the gym. His perfectly shaped upper body and toned shoulders, were visible in the picture. Rao yet again penned a creative caption which read, "#WorkInProgress #NEWTAN (new body) To get a new look for a new character, need to get a new body and a new mindset. #BadhaiDo #Bemehnati (be hard-working)."
