Prabhas and Rana Daggubati are playing two of the most important roles in the magnum opus. Prabhas plays the lead role while Rana plays the villain. The director wanted both of them to put on weight to fit their characterisation in the film. Unlike Rajamouli’s earlier films, this one is a folk drama.
It’s not easy to put on weight and to also keep your muscles toned unless a fitness trainer closely monitors the whole process.
Prabhas and Rana got fitness trainer Lakshman Reddy to work with them. Lakshman Reddy is the winner of the Mr World 2010 bodybuilding championship held in Las Vegas (USA) and has won 13 titles in India and abroad.
Prabhas started his training eight months before the shooting for Baahubali started. Putting on weight while keeping muscle tone intact needs a lot of time. Lakshman Reddy has monitored food intake and workouts very closely for both of them.

Their daily diet consisted of six to eight meals – all non-vegetarian. No rice was given at all. Meals were eaten every two hours. The total calorie intake would range between 2000 to 4000 calories a day.
Prabhas has two avatars in the film. One is lean and the other a bulky and heavy one.
And what would be the right way to reduce weight and muscle after the film is over?, The process will be the same but you have to limit the food intake, depending on the person’s requirements. It takes four to five months to reduce.
Lakshman Reddy clarifies that he never supports the use of steroids for physique building. Drugs are risky and cause health problems. He prefers natural diets and regular training and daily workout is compulsory. Otherwise problems are sure to crop up.
