Eijaz Khan has been one of the most popular actors on TV. And now, he is all set to be back on the small screen in a new show called Moh Moh Ke Dhaage.
And guess what? For the new show where Eijaz plays the role of a village headman, he had to gain a lot of weight. How much? As much as 10 kilos.
He said in a statement, "The character is a matured man who had to take up a lot of responsibility at a very young age. So he had to look older than his age. Additionally, in the village that I stayed, a lot of men were not lean but on the slightly heavy side."
He added, "I love sweets — favourite being gulab jamun, jalebi and chocolates. I can eat them pre-lunch, post lunch and even in between. In fact, the role was a blessing in disguise as I got to indulge my sweet tooth."
