Actor Pankaj Tripathi, who doesn’t believe in working out to show off, is still very invested in fitness. He says he has grown quite fitness conscious, and even built a home gym. Speaking in an interview, he said, “Main bahut conscious hoon fitness ko lekar (I am very conscious about fitness). And more so in the past two years, for two reasons. First, I have crossed the age of 45, and secondly, I had an injury and there were some complications.”
He said he does cardio at home, “par sab fitness ke liye, six ya eight pack abs banana ke liye nahi (but only for fitness, not to gain six or eight pack abs).
While his hectic schedule makes it difficult to exercise, Tripathi makes sure he gets on with it, even if its for just half an hour. “I don’t work out every day. I have divided it like three days for yoga and two days for the gym. I walk as much as I can, ranging from 45 minutes to an hour as it depends on the shooting. Kisi dubbing ke beech beech mein kar leta hoon (I make time between dubbing schedules). And now advertisements have also got added to the everything, it is tough managing everything.”
On the work front, Tripathi will be soon seen in cricket biopic ’83’, where he plays a coach.
