Revealing the reason behind his transformation, Badshah said he was facing a lot of health issues because of which he had to shed the extra kilos.
“There were a lot of reasons to shed weight; one of them was that my job required me to perform on stage for 120 minutes – for which, I have to be active. After lockdown, when I went up on stage to perform… that’s when I realised that I didn’t have enough stamina. I would be panting within 15 minutes. Another reason was that I suffered from sleep apnea that kept becoming intense; which is very dangerous,” the rapper said.
Sharing the healthy way of losing weight, Badshah said, “At first, I would suddenly starve myself. This is why I used to put on a lot of weight as well. But now, I have stopped suppressing my desires and eat what I want but not in quantities I will regret later. Due to our profession, we have a lot of bad eating habits. We don’t even eat on time. Now, I am addicted to salads. I think, for anyone who wants to lose weight, it is a lifestyle.”
