Abhishek Banerjee has hit the ground running this year. He shot for a few projects in 2020 and will be shooting a new film next month. Later the actor will wrap up portions of Dostana 2 and shoot for Rashmi Rocket as well.

“We are an industry of workaholics and we love to be at work daily, even if not to shoot, discussing ideas, scripts, casting, etc. As shootings will gain momentum this year, there will be too many shoots that might start together. Sab bhookhe hain ab kaam ke liye. Soon, there will be a bottleneck in the industry as everyone would want to start working in full speed after the standstill. There is so much to do every day. I will have as many as four releases this year,” says the Paatal Lok actor.

The last year, Banerjee, 32, admits, was not just about Coronavirus lockdown and releases on OTT for him, but also about fitness. “I was never into fitness but in 2020, I focused on my physical health. With time on hand during the lockdown, I tried yoga and workouts. Later, I went to Goa for a holiday and began enjoying runs on the beaches. I had never lived a lifestyle like that. My wife is a fitness enthusiast and seeing her working out daily, and being disciplined about workouts rubbed off on me,” he shares.

Happy about this development, he adds, “Regular workouts changed a lot in me as I felt more active and energetic. My other takeaway has been to be happy in less, in the basic things of life. I visited my parent’s home last month, which I used to feel is small, but this time, it felt big. These small things changed. We all had lost that somewhere in our daily rush.”
