Varun Tej Konidela has begun training for his upcoming sports drama ‘Ghani’, which will see him play a professional boxer. He shared a video of himself sweating it out at the gym and captioned it, “Here’s a sneak peek into my first day of training for my next movie! This journey wasn’t easy, but it certainly helped me push my limits. Trust the process! #bodytransformation #ghani (sic).”
The video that has close to 400k views on Instagram sees Varun Tej in a man-bun as he lifts heavy weights. Earlier, the actor shared a photo from the gym and urged people to not skip leg day. “Leg days are lethal,” he wrote.
‘Ghani’ introduces newbie Kiran Korrapati as the director. Allu Bobby and Sidhu Mudda are producing the movie. Saiee M Manjrekar is the leading lady. The shooting was halted due to the second wave of Covid-19, and the makers are planning to resume it soon.
The makers have roped in Hollywood stunt choreographers Larnell Stovall and Vlad Rimburg to shoot the climax portions of the film.
