I've done everything from watching videos multiple times to spending time with people who have known him."

The 'Pashmina-Dhaage Mohabbat Ke' actor added: "The biggest challenge I faced was gaining weight. I’ve always been a fitness freak and had a good physique. I had to stay away from the daily routine of fitness to gain weight and look like the character."
