Herry Tangiri: I had to lose 15 kgs to look like Yuvraj Singh

Actor Herry Tangiri, who is playing the role of Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh in the biopic 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story', had to lose weight to look like the southpaw.

He said, 'I had to train for two months to get into the character of Yuvraj Singh. I had to also lose 15 kgs to look like him. Neeraj Pandey sir and the production team had hired a dietician who looked after what I ate and made sure I lost the required amount of weight." Being a Punjabi and a foodie, Herry said that it was very difficult for him to lose the extra kilos. 'But my dedication towards the character helped me control my eating habits. Even Yuvraj's father with whom I shared screen space in 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' said that I looked like his son which is a huge compliment for me," said Herry.
Herry was also seen in 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', and interestingly the actor was asked to put on 12 kgs for his role in that film.
