Actor's 15kg Body Transformation for Hit Film

Actor Udaybir Sandhu is making waves for his portrayal of Gurbaaz Singh, or Pinda, in the recently released film Dhurandhar 2. He plays the childhood friend of Ranveer Singh's character, with their reunion in Lyari forming a key plot point. One of Sandhu's dialogues has particularly resonated with viewers.

Prior to his acting career, Sandhu excelled as a national-level hockey player for Punjab. This sports background proved invaluable in his acting debut, Akshay Kumar's Gold, where he also assisted co-actors with hockey scenes. He later appeared in Imtiaz Ali's Amar Singh Chamkila and alongside Shehnaaz Gill in Ikk Kudi.

Sandhu's dedication to his role in Dhurandhar 2 is evident; he gained and lost 15 kg to authentically depict Pinda at ages 20 and 40. The actor described the process as pushing his limits through discipline, blood, sweat, and tears.

Dhurandhar 2 is experiencing tremendous box office success, having crossed Rs 600 crore worldwide within four days of its release. The film's strong performance, particularly overseas in North America, positions it to become one of India's highest-grossing films of all time.
