Popular for his roles in TV series Kasam Se and Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, Ram Kapoor lost a whopping 55 kg in 2024. While speculations that the actor has taken Ozempic and other weight loss drugs, the actor put the claims to rest by sharing his weight loss routine.
The 51-year-old revealed that he lost 55 kilos in 18 months with 3 simple diet rules:
Two meals a day - one at 10:30 am and the next at 6:30 pm.
No snacking in between meals.
No eating after 6:30 pm and fasting until the next morning.
3. Gauahar Khan
The Lovely Lolla actor had one of the biggest weight loss transformations that stunned fans. Gauahar Khan lost 10 kg in 10 days. She had gained weight post-pregnancy.
In an interview, the 41-year-old actor revealed that she ate everything for the sake of her newborn's health after delivery but after six months, she followed a strict diet. Gauahar Khan only had three meals a day, and all of them included salads and soups. She avoided high-calorie foods.
"My diet only included leaves and soup. I zipped my mouth. I literally did. I was not on a diet. I was eating things properly, but they used to be in salad and soup form. I left non-veg. I left mutton. It is my favourite thing to eat, but I left it because it is high in calories," she shared.
Since her weight loss was drastic, the actor revealed that this was her personal approach to weight loss. While she read a lot of literature on the methods she undertook, it was not done under the supervision of any professional.
4. Bharti Singh
Popular Indian comedian Bharti Singh lost around 15 kg in 10 months. In a podcast, the television host shared that she was dealing with asthma and diabetes when she was overweight, and now both these conditions are under control.
She credited intermittent fasting (IF) for her weight loss. IF is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of eating and voluntary fasting regularly.
"I do not eat anything from 7 pm to 12 noon. I eat in the afternoon. I have eaten a lot of food for 30-32 years, and after that, I gave time to my body for one year and accepted everything," she revealed. She also practised portion control, sticking to proper meal timings, and not skipping any meals.
5. Dilip Joshi
Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah fame Dilip Joshi had lost 16 kilos in 45 days with a simple 45-minute workout every day for the role of a scientist in a 1992 Gujarati film.

While some are drastic weight loss methods, others are sustainable. The best way to lose weight is with a healthy diet and exercise. However, you must check with your doctor before making any changes to your diet.
