Ali Fazal is currently focused on preparing for his much-anticipated role as Guddu Bhaiya in Mirzapur: The Movie, and this time, he’s taking a more traditional approach to his physical transformation.
Ali Fazal takes traditional route to bulk up for Mirzapur: The Movie, ditches protein shakes, trains like a wrestler
Rather than relying entirely on modern supplements or high-protein diets, Ali has reportedly turned to his family roots in Pehelwani and Kushti, forms of traditional Indian wrestling, to build strength and bulk. According to sources close to the actor, this training method emphasizes functional strength, endurance, and discipline, aligning perfectly with the rugged character of Guddu.
In keeping with the theme, Ali has also adopted a diet inspired by traditional, homegrown recipes passed down through generations in his family. His meals are said to include natural proteins, ghee, milk, and seasonal produce, helping him fuel demanding workouts while staying connected to his cultural heritage.
A source close to the actor shared, “Guddu Bhaiya is a powerful character, and Ali wanted to bring a different level of authenticity to him this time. His family has a history in Pehelwani, and he grew up watching the discipline and dedication it requires. So, instead of just relying on protein shakes, he chose to train and eat like a wrestler.” Ali himself commented on the transformation, saying, “The idea is to build a body that’s not just for show, but one that feels real—one that can fight, endure, and dominate, just like Guddu would. This is my way of bringing a fresher, fiercer version of him to the screen.”
With excitement building around Mirzapur: The Movie, fans can expect a more grounded and powerful version of Guddu Bhaiya—one shaped by tradition, grit, and real-world strength.
