Director SS Rajamouli recently revealed that Prabhas who was on a strict diet during the making of Baahubali 2 ate 15 varieties of biryanis as part of his cheat day meal.
We all know that ‘Great bodies are made in the kitchen, not the gym’. That is why Prabhas and Rana were on a strict diet to maintain their muscular frame.
Prabhas had to gain a lot of weight to play Amarendra Baahubali. He was reportedly more than 100 kg while playing this iconic role.
But, once in a while, the actors would indulge in their favourite food items on the cheat days that was allowed by their fitness trainer.
Director Rajamouli revealed that whenever Prabhas had a chance to take a break from his diet regime, he would eat at least 15 types of biriyani!
“Once in a month, they will have a cheat meal day. On that day, you should see the kind of display Prabhas has. 10-15 kinds of biriyanis, just biriyanis. No exaggeration. You don’t even know those varieties of biriyanis even exist. Varieties of fish, chicken, mutton, and not just curries, even fries. You can’t just imagine the kind of display he has,” said Rajamouli during media interactions in London, when Baahubali 2 was screened at the British Film Institute sometime back.
Despite having so much on his platter to eat, Prabhas wouldn’t start eating his grand cheat day meal without chutney.
“We played football that day until 2 AM, and after finishing the game, he came and sat down to eat with all the varieties of food displayed in front of him. Prabhas asked his brother in law, where is the chutney. His brother in law went to his home, woke up his wife at 2 AM, made the chutney and brought it to the spot. Prabhas first ate that and continued eating (the rest of the dishes). So, that is Prabhas for you,” Rajamouli revealed.
