It’s a great alliance of sorts when Akshay Oberoi teamed up with Hrithik Roshan on the set of Fighter. A long-standing fitness enthusiast, Oberoi shared how he found a fitness buddy in his co-star.

“Working with Hrithik Roshan on Fighter has given me a fresh perspective on fitness and maintaining a healthy body,” says the actor who plays Squadron Leader Basheer Khan, a skilled weapon system operator in the action-packed film.

Roshan, celebrated for his chiselled physique and commitment to a healthy lifestyle, serves as a fitness icon in Bollywood and a guidance for Oberoi. He acknowledges Roshan’s dedication and passion for fitness as truly inspirational, and the camaraderie fostered a shared commitment to promoting health and wellness in the industry.

“Driving inspiration from my co-actor has given me fresh perspective on leading a fitter life. It’s not just about physical fitness; it’s a holistic approach that Hrithik embodies, and it’s truly motivating,” says the actor.
