Apoorva Lakhia: I have never seen any girl who can eat as much as Shraddha can

Shraddha Kapoor had put on around eight kilos for her role in ‘Haseena Parkar’. However, she wanted to gain more weight but couldn’t. Recently, the director of the film, Apoorva Lakhia revealed that Shraddha was quite happy to gain weight.

The director said, “Shraddha was quite happy while putting on weight to play the older Haseena as she could thumb her nose at her diet and eat whatever she wanted and I must say this- the amount of food that she can put away is totally awesome! I have never seen any girl who can eat as much as Shraddha can!”

When in an interview, we had asked Shraddha if she would have gained more weight if the makers asked her, to which she said, “That’s what I tried. I tried to do that (gain that much of weight), but unfortunately my body went up to eight kilos. Your metabolism is also high right, so my metabolism is on the higher side. I would have taken like two years to gain that weight. I wish I could gain it faster and gain all that weight myself. My body type is like that, like whatever I was gaining was coming very little, nothing was going on my arms. My arms were skinny.” (Also Read: ‘Haseena Parkar’: When Shraddha carried Ankur on her shoulders)
