Ram Kapoor, formerly popular for his suave and fuller physique in blockbuster serials such as
Bade Achhe Lagte Hain and Kasamh Se, continues to amaze audiences with his astonishing fitness makeover. On Tuesday, the actor stunned fans yet again after posting a fresh set of photos on Instagram that prove one thing: he's actually ageing backwards.
On his recent post, Ram took a glimpse at how his physique had changed – this time around without a shirt, though. Posed shirtlessly with his chest out showing clearly a sculpted face and cut jawline, the actor has made everyone notice that the mission is really yet to come to an end. Captioning, he put it, "Work in progress… sorry for the partial nudity … still long way to go to reach the goal.
The comment section was filled with a deluge of reactions. While some fans were awed, terming him a "beast" and admiring the self-control behind his makeover, others were nostalgic about the Ram Kapoor they had grown up watching. One user posted, "Dayummmm," while another said, "U looked much better earlier. pehle aap bade ache lagte the!" A very emotional fan posted, "I miss your chubby cheeks."
This is not the first time Ram Kapoor has made heads turn. The actor grabbed headlines when he announced that he had lost a staggering 55 kgs — a feat that motivated thousands of fans all over the country.
However, even amidst praise, Ram has been criticized and speculated upon, particularly about how he underwent the transformation. He has openly denied taking Ozempic, a contentious weight-loss drug.
Amidst all this health-centric makeover, Kapoor was also embroiled in a subtle war of words with TV czarina Ektaa Kapoor. Their tension became public after Ram alleged that Ektaa had insisted on the now-famous kissing scene between him and Sakshi Tanwar in Bade Achhe Lagte Hain. As a counterattack, Ektaa took a veiled swipe at his weight reduction efforts, which only added to the rumors of a breakdown.
In spite of personal and professional soap operas, Ram is steadfast on his path and an example of commitment and self-control. His fans, either pro or con his physical transformation, still look up to the man who once revolutionized the TV hero and now is revolutionizing midlife fitness.
On the professional front, Ram was recently seen in the web show Khalbali Records, which went on air on September 12, 2024. With his new look and incessant reinvention, one thing is certain — Ram Kapoor is not yet done.
