  "account": "Shah Rukh Khan, the 61-year-old Bollywood superstar, continues to maintain his enviable six-pack abs and toned physique at a time when many find it challenging. His fitness routine, as revealed in past interviews, is surprisingly straightforward. As he gears up to celebrate his birthday on November 2, details of his regimen offer insights into the key elements contributing to his fitness.\n\nInterviewed by The Guardian in 2024, Shah Rukh spoke about his unique sleep and workout schedule. He often goes to bed at around 5 am and wakes up at 9 or 10 am when he is filming. After returning home late from shoots, he fits in a 30-minute workout before retiring for the night. Despite his demanding schedule, he manages to squeeze in a brief gym session lasting about half an hour.\n\nIn terms of diet, Shah Rukh follows a unique approach — one meal a day. He describes it as a personal habit rather than intermittent fasting. His meals are uncomplicated and basic. In a 2016 interview, he mentioned staples like sprouts, grilled chicken, broccoli, and, on occasion, a small serving of dal. When dining with friends or family, he indulges in whatever is offered, including rich dishes like biryani and those containing ghee, showing a balanced approach to food.",
