days thats the day i realised for the first time how difficult it is for actors to pull off those muscular shots as a director i just go up to the actor and say just build your body but i saw raj hitting the gym after a 12hour gruelling shift on the sets he would pump iron every single day and then on the dining table when all of us were eating anything and everything served this poor guy was just eating broccoli or a dry piece of paneer i was very guilt ridden for making raj go through this torture but that effort that he put in is the fun that he was talking about earlier hes gone through so many physical challenges for this role but all that effort was funhow gruelling and tough is it to go through such a body transformationrajkummar its very tough especially for someone like me whos a vegetarian i cant even do that makes a gesture of an injection syringe being pumped kind of stuff the film has a dialogue that goes humne toh woh sab bhi nahi liya hai injection vinjection laughs hats off to people who maintain such bodies throughout the year its not easy to keep a six pack all the timerajkummar youre no stranger to movies characters and stories centred on marriages you recently got married too how much did your onscreen experience help you with your offscreen matrimonyrajkummar no films have a fictional world with real emotions attached mind you but here its about my life its about the person who i love and i have been in love with for the last 11 years and will continue that forever harsh was there at the wedding he will tell you i was just so happy people were saying itna khush dulha bhaiya humne kabhi nahi dekha weve never seen a groom this happy laughshunterr was a risqu subject but badhaai do while bold in some aspects is still a lot closer to the family entertainer genre did you find a stark difference in your process of telling these two storiesharshavardhan nothing has changed in my process its definitely not the same story so the world is very different even the humour that hunterrr had and badhaai do has is very different making this film was far more challenging because we are telling the audience that this is a funny film now to make them laugh thats such a tough proposition so you have to work harder and make sure that you create things and moments that are out there like the physical comedy that raj was talking about when youre working with the real genre youre more comfortable because you know youre from that world but with a film like badhaai do its a lot tougher rajkummar do you feel a marriage of convenience can last the test of timerajkummar i have known people who have had a marriage of convenience a friend of mine told me
