Sikandar Kher
Set to feature in Dev Patel’s directorial venture, the Hollywood film, Monkey Man, Sikandar Kher is en-route to gaining 12 kilos. The actor acknowledges that in an industry that considers physical appearance to be of primary importance, willingly going out of shape can be a daunting task. “However, Monkey Man is the biggest opportunity that has been given to me. It is a step forward in reaching out to a new audience. I wanted to give it my all. The film requires me to have a bulky figure, and I have worked hard to alter my structure to suit the role. Life has thrown this huge opportunity at me, and I am working hard to stay true to the character,” says the actor, adding that he has always paid heed to his appearances in cinema.

“I try to look, think, and act like my characters. It won’t be wrong to say that I like to get under the skin of every character. The change is a gradual process, but I feel confident enough to tell you now that my part in Monkey Man is [the person] that I am, at the moment,” says Kher, adding that he went on a calorie-surplus diet, and trained to achieve the required frame. The action thriller has been written by Paul Angunawela, and John Collee, along with Patel.
