Mumbai: Filmmaker Boney Kapoor, who has produced several blockbuster films, recently took the internet by storm with his drastic physical transformation.
The filmmaker left netizens stunned after losing 26 kg at the age of 69 without hitting the gym!
According to a report in News18, the secret behind Boney’s drastic weight loss is his disciplined lifestyle. His diet includes soups, fruit juice and jawar roti, and he apparently skips dinner.
In viral photos doing the rounds on social media, Boney looks visibly leaner in his casuals and semi-formals.

Last year, opening up about his physical transformation, which also included a hair transplant, Boney had said: “My wife Sri used to tell me, ‘Boney, first lose weight then you can fix your hair. They told me bald people are lucky, like Yash Chopra, so I stayed bald for a while,” he added, while sharing that some people advised him otherwise.”
“Finally, one day, I was convinced to get a hair transplant. In three days, they planted almost 6,000 hair,” he revealed.
Crediting his late wife Sridevi for the changes in his lifestyle, Boney said, “I remembered my wife’s advice who wanted me to lose weight before the hair transplant, so I went on a diet and lost about 14 kgs. It’s hard for me to exercise, but I still managed to shed weight.”
Recalling a conversation with his daughter about Sridevi’s hesitations, Boney joked, “She said, ‘She thought after it you will become a better-looking person.’ This was a secret until today.”
