Aditya Roy Kapur is all set for yet another action genre project. After delivering impressive action sequences in films like Rashtra Kavach Om (2022) and Gumraah (2023), he captivated audiences with his portrayal in the high-octane series The Night Manager (2023). Now, Kapur is gearing up for his next action project, slated to begin filming later this year.
According to a report in Mid-Day, to prepare for this demanding role, Kapur has embarked on a rigorous physical training regimen, with a focus on mixed martial arts (MMA). According to a source close to the project, Kapur has been working diligently with celebrity fitness trainer Rohit Nair for several weeks now. “Aditya has always been dedicated to fitness, but this role requires him to be well-versed in MMA,” the source reveals. “He started training with Rohit a few weeks back and is determined to bring complete authenticity to the part. He will continue this intensive training for the next two months before filming commences.”
