Why Is Satish Kaushik On Detox?

Juggling flmmaking and acting is no mean feat. And Satish Kaushik experienced it again, recently. The seasoned actor, who made headlines for shedding 25 kg with a disciplined lifestyle and food habits last year, had a tough time sustaining his low-calorie diet while filming his upcoming production, Kaagaz, in Sitapur (near Lucknow), Uttar Pradesh. Now, he has taken to a detox diet to return in shape because starting his next acting venture.

A source close to Kaushik says, “The Sitapur schedule lasted over 50 days. Since winter was setting in, it became increasingly difficult for everyone, including the makers and cast, to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Winter is that time of the year in North India when everyone enjoys gorging on delectable varieties. Though he tried a lot, Satish ji, too, couldn’t pull off the kind of eating discipline that he ensures otherwise. He ended up putting on a few kilos.” The source adds that Kaushik has ditched sweets and carbs completely in order to get back to his fit avatar.

When contacted, the actor-filmmaker said, “My diet now comprises fruits and veggies. I consume high-protein items and avoid sugar completely. I am sure that I will shed the extra kilos before hitting the sets of my next.”
