When Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan to put on weight

Now when we talk of ultra profeesinal stars, how can we ever ignore Aishwarya rai and Abhishek bachchan. Apparently, while shooting with the extra-rigid Mani Rathnam for GURU, the duo had to put on kilos of weight as they are shown progressing over a span of time in the film. And towards the end they are actually supposed to look ‘roly poly’ (though we wonder how that’s possible with the svelte Ash and the brawny Abhi). Now that was the easy part. What was really not that simple was that right after Mani’s shooting schedule they had to knowk off all that excess weight for Umrao Jaan and Dhoom 2 and suddenly the trainers, the jogging suits and weights all came out. “It was tough!” informs Ash. “But to get back into shape, we just had to sweat it out in the gyms at any given opportunity. And thankfully, all the ‘tone’ and ‘form’ are back. Believe me, it’s so easy to binge and put on. But working it off…ooof!”
