Weight Loss Naturally
Eshwar Harris shared Mana Stars, “I recently met Jr NTR while shooting for a Zepto ad. He was a little weak while shooting for it. That day, he had a fever. He has also been dieting lately because he has to match Hrithik Roshan. It’s not easy to match Hrithik Roshan (laughs). I am not trying to match either, but I’m staying fit because Jr NTR anna (brother) inspires me.”
Behind The Scenes Struggle
In the interview, Eshwar revealed that the team of War 2 had asked him to come and film a few scenes as Jr NTR’s body double. He shared, “Recently, I was asked if I would like to work in War 2. I did not do it because of the remuneration. They asked me to come to Mumbai on the next flight I could get. But the remuneration was so low, they probably wouldn’t even cover my flight charges.”
Further, he added, “Bollywood is worse than us; I’m getting paid better than that here (in Hyderabad and Tollywood). You have such high budgets; you should be paying better. I was asked to work for three days, but I turned it down because it’s barely enough to cover my travel.”
