Even today, the epic battle between one of history’s greatest villains, Muhammad Ghori, and Prithviraj Chauhan continues to stir pride in the hearts of many.Bringing alive the legacy of this iconic warrior and his lineage is celebrated actor Ronit Bose Roy, who will be seen essaying the powerful role of King Someshwar, Prithviraj Chauhan’s father. Known for his intensity and unmatched screen presence, Ronit Roy has undergone a stunning physical transformation, losing a whopping 8 kgs to embody the persona of the wise and dignified king.Speaking about the transformation, Ronit Bose Roy said , “To do justice to a character of such stature and legacy, I knew I had to go beyond just understanding his emotional journey—I had to physically transform myself to embody the strength, discipline, and royal bearing that a king demands. Over the span of two months, I lost 8 kgs through a rigorous and highly disciplined fitness regimen. My days would begin with strength training sessions in the morning, followed by intense cardio workouts in the evening. Alongside that, I trained extensively in martial arts and stick fighting to capture the warrior aspect of King Someshwar. These weren’t just physical drills—they helped me tap into the mindset and spirit of a seasoned ruler and protector of the land. It’s been an exhausting but incredibly fulfilling process. The goal was not to just look at the part, but to feel it in every scene. I hope the audience feels the same power and pride that I did while bringing this magnificent character to life."
