Speaking about the transformation, Ronit Bose Roy said , 'To do justice to a character of such stature and legacy, I knew I had to go beyond just understanding his emotional journey—I had to physically transform myself to embody the strength, discipline, and royal bearing that a king demands. Over the span of two months, I lost 8 kgs through a rigorous and highly disciplined fitness regimen. My days would begin with strength training sessions in the morning, followed by intense cardio workouts in the evening. Alongside that, I trained extensively in martial arts and stick fighting to capture the warrior aspect of King Someshwar. These weren't just physical drills—they helped me tap into the mindset and spirit of a seasoned ruler and protector of the land. It's been an exhausting but incredibly fulfilling process.
