Shilpa Shetty Put On Weight For Rohit Shetty's Indian Police Force: 'He Wanted A Tough Officer...'
The actress known for her commitment to health and fitness, gets candid about her prep for the angry lady cop role.

Shilpa Shetty is all set to join Rohit Shetty’s cop universe in the highly anticipated series ‘Indian Police Force,’ creating a buzz among fans eagerly awaiting its release on Amazon Prime Video. Shilpa, known for her versatility, will be taking on the role of the formidable lady cop, Tara Shetty.

The actress known for her commitment to health and fitness, gets candid about her prep for the angry lady cop role. Emphasising the importance of discipline and consistency, Shilpa said, “You need to have discipline and consistency. My routine and lifestyle are pretty balanced. I eat my dinner by 7 pm and fast for 14 hours. I usually follow a high protein low carb diet, but when you’re working, you need to adapt to the role and its requirements. Rohit wanted me to put on weight on my legs as he wanted a tough officer. So to get into the skin of the character, I changed my diet to put on some extra pounds focusing mainly on my lower body.

Fans can look forward to witnessing Shilpa Shetty in an unseen avatar as she brings the character of Tara Shetty to life on the screen. Rohit Shetty had revealed during the trailer launch that Shilpa did all the stunts on her own and even severely injured herself during one of the scenes, which led her to remain confined to the bed for a good few months. “Shilpa has really given her blood and sweat. In one scene, she got a fracture. She was at home for three months and I can’t say thanks to myself,” he said with a laugh.

Speaking about it, Shilpa added that though this isn’t the first time that she performed stunts in a project, it’s definitely the first time that she hurt herself so badly. “I have done action before but it was my first major fall. I feel so elated that Rohit thought of me to play Tara Shetty. My go-ahead was actually when I actually heard the name of the character. It was written so beautifully and I’ve literally given an arm and a leg,” she shared.
