Hrithik Roshan
Hrithik Roshan is known to be particular about his exercise regimen, even when he is not shooting. So it’s not surprising that he carries his gym equipment when he travels for outdoor shoots. Given that he was travelling to Assam to film his next, Fighter, which also marks his reunion with director Siddharth Anand after Bang Bang, he ensured that his equipment accompanied him. He transported machines like the lat pull down, preacher curl, leg extension, rowing machine, squat rack, and leg press. We hear, Duggu left his gym machines at the Air Force officer’s mess after wrapping the shoot, as a gift. The actor plays an Air Force pilot in the aviation thriller. “In a way, it was also Hrithik’s way of thanking the officers who sacrifice their all for the country and her people,” a source has said.

Bhumi Pednekar has had a busy year with back-to-back shoots. With Govinda Naam Mera, her last offering for 2022, streaming on OTT, she is now holidaying in Mexico.

Bhumi, who celebrated Christmas in the North American country, will return to the bay after ringing in the New Year, to resume work on her movies.
