Vijay Deverakonda recalls ‘unhealthy’ body transformation for Liger: ‘Was licking an ice cube’
Vijay Deverakonda is currently preparing for his upcoming film Ranabaali, alongside his wife Rashmika Mandanna. The actor, who made his Hindi debut in Liger alongside Ananya Panday, recently discussed the extreme physical transformation he underwent for the 2022 film. In an interview with Sudhir Srinivasan on his YouTube channel, Vijay revealed that he drastically reduced his water intake to achieve a shredded appearance for Liger.
The process involved slowly cutting his daily water consumption from 4 to 6 liters down to 300 ml to 100 ml, with the last 10 hours before a shoot prohibited from drinking water altogether, except for licking ice cubes. The actor emphasized that this method is not healthy or easy, and he began to look forward to the end of his shoots so he could finally drink water. Vijay also admitted that he was "hurt" after Liger underperformed at the box office.
