If one talks about the Indian movie industry, stars get worshipped by fans. Whatever a star does will inspire their fans. Similar is the case with Mukesh Ambani’s wife, Nita Ambani, who is fit as a fiddle at 60. Behind her great looks and figure is the hands of celebrity fitness trainer, Vinod Channa. He has always focused on the fact that self-care is of utmost importance to anyone. However, do you know the charges that Nita Ambani’s trainer, Vinod, takes from clients while giving them fitness lessons?
Nita Ambani’s fitness trainer, Vinod Channa, charges in lakhs
During an exclusive interview with BollywoodShaadis, Vinod, who has designed a power-packed workout for Nita, spoke about his fees. He did agree that initially he used to charge less, and then when he started taking up celebrity clients, he could not take up many clients. One could only handle 1 to 2 people and hence Vinod has different packages for the clients. In his words:
“If I am travelling 3 hours, then I charge 3 hours’ distance. When people come to my gym, I charge Rs. 1.5 lakh for 12 sessions, and if I go to the people, I take Rs. 2-2.5 lakh, for which people call me full day, then I charge lakhs per day. People stay near my gym just for weight loss. They booked me for 6 days. When I travel for people, it is lakhs per day. If I go and train people at home, I charge according to time.”
Vinod Channa shares how different training celebrities is from the other normal clients
Vinod, who has worked with an array of celebrities like John Abraham and Shilpa Shetty, to name a few, shared that celebrities have targets to achieve in a short duration of time. He revealed that within a short period like 3 months, they want to come into shape and also reach a particular level. Vinod mentioned how the stars have to reach that goal, and they do all the hard work, like strict dieting. In his words:
“John, for any movie, you will see a different body. Shilpa Shetty lost post-pregnancy when she took that dance show. First, she was told to perform. She trusted me with the perfect body she has right now. That happened as she kept the target and worked hard towards that. It is important to target. Normal people do not keep a target.”
Vinod also shared that it is never easy to handle celebrities as they have different mood swings. He revealed that it is often seen that stars work for 12 hours, they diet less and want quick results. They do get frustrated when they do not see instant results, and Vinod ensures that he patiently handles them. He also shared that he is good at observing which star was actually throwing temper tantrums or acting to be moody and which star genuinely lost patience skills due to weight loss. It was Vinod who is to be credited for Anant Ambani’s epic weight loss. It was in 2016 when Vinod helped the young billionaire to lose 108 kg in a short span of 18 months. Vinod noted:
“I have to ensure he does that much of a workout. I have to understand if he is tired and has energy levels. Kisi ko result nai aaya keep motivating. Baar baar weight change nai karna chahiye.”
