Kartik Aaryan’s Transformation for ‘Chandu Champion’: Rahul Bhatt Reveals Challenges and Growth:

Kartik Aaryan's physical preparation for Kabir Khan's sports drama Chandu Champion, which featured India's first Paralympic gold medalist, Murlikant Petkar, previously drew critical attention. The transformation, which was choreographed by fitness coach Rahul Bhatt, was both physically and mentally taxing, illustrating Kartik’s resolve to push boundaries.

Transforming Into A Champion

As a professional boxer, swimmer, and performer, Petkar is a multi-faceted athlete whom Kartik had to embody. As such, he had to undertake separate intensive training for each discipline and sculpt an athletic physique along the way. This was no small task as Kartik came to the role with no relevant head start. Although Rahul Bhatt, son of director Mahesh Bhatt, experienced relationship challenges early on with the actor, he eventually embraced his roles as a task master within the team.

Early Challenges and Evolving Bond

Bhatt's assertions portray a reality rife with dichotomy, from doubts about his work to fluent collaboration with story subjects like Aamir Khan. He ultimately softened his early narrative by articulating his impressions of Kartik, stating he ‘came on time,’ which was a key factor in enabling other team members to trust him.

Recognition for Branding and Dedication

Very early on, Rahul shared admiration for Kartik’s resolve and coping skills. He also mentioned Kartik’s public relations and branding skills—qualities that, in Rahul's estimation, would make him a contemporary film star—wonderful to have. “He is the king of public relations,” Rahul stated, appreciating Kartik’s self-promotion skills.

Rahul Bhatt: Other Responsibilities Include Training

Outside being a fitness trainer, Rahul Bhatt is also known for his roles in movies and reality shows like Bigg Boss 4. Deeply entrenched in Bollywood as the son of Mahesh Bhatt and brother to Pooja Bhatt, makes Rahul unusual in the world of fitness and entertainment.
