Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra is currently making headlines for her film “Amar Singh Chamkila”. She plays a significant role alongside Diljit Dosanjh in the biopic of singer Amar Singh Chamkila. In the film released on April 12, 2024, she portrayed the role of Amarjot Kaur, Chamkila’s wife.

For this role, Parineeti has gained 15 kilograms. In an interview, she discussed her physical transformation.

Suffering Due to Pregnancy: Parineeti

Parineeti said, “When I signed the film ‘Chamkila’, many people in the industry warned me that if I gain weight for this role, it could end my career. I took inspiration from Vidya Balan, who gained weight for ‘The Dirty Picture’. Nevertheless, I was told to gain 15 kilograms, and it was also said that I shouldn’t wear any makeup on my face. I looked my worst in ‘Chamkila’, and during this time, I lost many projects. I looked bad, and during this time, there were rumors about my pregnancy and plastic surgery.”

Maintaining a Difference from the Red Carpet

Parineeti revealed in an interview that due to her increased weight, she reduced her appearances at red carpet events. She said, “I used to avoid going to red carpet events. Fashion was out of the question because I didn’t look like before. I still don’t look like before.”

Parineeti’s Efforts to Lose Weight

Currently, Parineeti has also mentioned on social media that she is busy losing her increased weight. Last year, her daily routine only involved eating junk food and gaining weight. But now, when the film has been released, there are new stories against her. Now, she is continuously working out in the gym so that she can look as beautiful as before. Parineeti said, “It’s very difficult, but I really enjoyed playing the roles of Amarjot and Saran in ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’.
