Kriti Sanon Trains Intensively for Lean, Toned Look in Cocktail 2 Bikini ScenePreviousNext

Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon prepared for her first bikini scene in the upcoming film Cocktail 2 through a rigorous fitness regimen designed by her trainer Karan Sawhney. The plan involved six weekly gym sessions focusing on heavy strength training, incline walks, and a high-protein diet to achieve a lean, toned physique without becoming size zero. The director emphasized maintaining a fit, luminous look with visible abs while avoiding excessive weight loss. Sanon's training was both physically and mentally demanding, requiring consistent dedication.
