  "account": "Rakesh Roshan, the 77-year-old actor-filmmaker, maintains an impressive fitness routine despite a hip injury that has plagued him for four months. His trainer, Sajid Khan, describes Rakesh's dedication as unparalleled, praising his punctuality and discipline. Rakesh works out five days a week, walks daily, uses the stairs, and follows a simple, home-cooked diet. His trainer, who has been working with him since January 2021, emphasizes the importance of his routine, which includes weight training, flexibility, and cardio, changing roughly every two months based on his body's response. Rakesh has recovered around 80% from his hip muscle tear and continues to exercise, adjusting his routine to accommodate his injury. Khan, who also represented India in Taekwondo, credits Rakesh's consistency for his fitness success, noting that even after cancer treatment, Rakesh continued to go to work and climb stairs as usual. He encourages people to start with short, consistent workouts and emphasizes that consistency is the key to fitness.",
