In October last
year, pictures of Ram Kapoor working out in the gym went viral. The actor had
shared a snap of his training session and captioned it, “Work in progress
(sic)."
No sooner he
uploaded the photograph, Twitterati began mocking him and asked him to spare
them.

However, while
talking to section of media during the screening of the first episode of his
upcoming show Comedy High School yesterday, he revealed the real reason why he
wants to get into shape.
Ram said,
"See, I just want to get healthier for my children. I obviously am not
doing this to look younger. I am 44 and I do not need to change the way I look.
The country has accepted me the way I am and I feel lucky. But there comes a
time in your life when you want to do things for your children and I am doing
just that. I quit smoking 2 years ago for my daughter and getting fit is the
next step. You will soon get to see a healthier me.”

Ask him if he
feels the pressure of possessing a certain kind of body to be able to get work
and he states, “I have never felt that pressure. In fact, with this physique I
have been working for 18 years. In this industry having a career for that long
is bliss. There are star kids who get launched easily but don’t end up with
long-term careers. I feel extremely blessed.”
Meanwhile, the
second season of AltBalaji's Karrle Tu Bhi Mohhabat starring Ram and Sakshi
Tanwar will soon be streaming on the platform. We had told you the two shot for
