Ali Fazal’s Diet Plan

For his role of a gangster in the web-series ‘Mirzapur,’ Ali Fazal took to a strict diet for a period of eight months, and put on nearly 14 kg of muscle. Being a Lucknow lad, Ali is fond of Mughlai cuisine and had to sacrifice a lot because of a strict diet plan. For ‘Mirzapur,’ he used to intake protein every two hours. To shed all the muscle mass for ‘Milan Talkies,’ he was put on a Keto diet with no carbohydrates, and, absolutely, no sugar.

Breakfast:

Ali does not take any carbs for breakfast. His breakfast is very simple; he replaced carbs with oats and coffee.

Lunch:

Since he is on a Keto diet, his lunch usually consists of dairy products. His diet does not have any foods high on sugar.

Dinner:

He used to have his dinner before 7 at night. He does not eat after 7 at night.

Ali Fazal’s Workout Plan

  • Besides being on a no-carb and no-sugar diet, Ali Fazal followed his workout plan regularly. Since his role in the movie ‘Milan Talkies’ required him to shed muscle, therefore, he turned towards running. To attain a lean figure, Ali’s trainer made him run for more than 5 km each day.
  • For the role of a gangster in Mirzapur, Ali would do three exercises. His workout regime included deadlifting, squatting, and chest exercises. The actor followed this workout plan for nearly eight months and used to work out for nearly four hours daily. Rakesh Udiyar, who was the trainer of Aamir Khan in Dangal, trained Fazal for Mirzapur. What’s more surprising is the fact that prior to the first day of the shoot of the web-series, Ali had not drunk water for three consecutive days.
  • Apart from going out for a run, Ali attends a Crossfit class, meditates, boxes, and also, undergoes functional training. Crossfit training is what keeps up the heart rate of the actor.
  • Ali Fazal, while talking about his transformation in an interview, revealed that he has a lean frame naturally and is comfortable being lean only.
