Saqib Saleem's latest transformation has left everyone stunned. Pictures of him going from flab to fab has been doing the rounds on social media since today morning. However, little does anyone know about the real story. Apparently, Saqib (who we've always known to be lean) had gained a lot of weight after a major back injury. Post his recovery, he wanted to gain back his original shape and started working out extra hard. With that, he even achieved six pack abs. Talking about the whole incident, Saqib revealed to us exclusively, "I worked very hard to get this physique. It all began when I suffered a major injury. I tried lifting an obscene amount of weight and my trainer advised me not to, but I still went ahead and got injured. I tried a deadlift and my back snapped. For one whole month, I was on bed rest and though I did not have any facture, I used to have multiple spasms and used to wake up at night with a lot of pain. I underwent physiotherapy, but being on bed rest, I put on a lot of weight."
But how did he undergo such a fantastic transformation? The Race 3 actor added, "Being a sportsman, I was stunned by what I had become. I love working out, so I pushed myself and I knew I needed to do it for myself. Race 3 did not even happen at the time I started working out, it happened much later. I took me three and a half months to get in shape. I ate the cleanest food. In fact, I had constant fights with the cook as she used to add things like butter, oil, that I told no to. I wanted to eat the cleanest food and hence, I started ordering meal boxes from this particular place. I even underwent an intensive workout regime with my trainer Vilayat Husain. I dislocated my left thumb during this too, but I still continued. After that Race 3 happened and (Salman) Bhai put me to do action and two hours of workout too. I even did action practice and I've been able to become fit and fine." (ALSO READ - Feel blessed that I am getting to share screen space with Salman Khan: Saqib Saleem)
