Having charmed the audiences with his acting skills on shows like Mahabharat (Star Plus), Basera (NDTV Imagine), Shobha Somnath Ki (Zee TV), Ghar Aaja Pardesi (Sahara One) and Kumkum Bhagya (Zee TV), the handsome Ankit Mohan paved his way into the Bollywood industry with his debut film Mausam.
And now, Ankit seems to be progressing in his Bollywood career as the lad is all set to amaze the audiences on the silver screen!
Based on the concept of a man who is passionate about football, Ankit will play Captain John who will undergo training under Anupam Kher who will essay a coach in the movie.
When we connected with the fine-looking actor to know more about his Bollywood stint, Ankit shared, "This movie is directed by Prabhat Bhattacharya. When Prabhat first meet me, he could not place me anywhere in his film since the story is about footballers and I was bulky. He mentioned of how he was not looking at casting a body builder and that I needed to shape myself like an athlete. I worked out for a month to get in shape."
Elaborating on his fitness regime, he averred, "I underwent football practices and followed a strict gym schedule to change my look. I have lost 15 kgs to get the right look for the movie and I am very excited to shoot for the same!"
We wish you luck Ankit!
