Tisca said she was astonished by the discipline the veteran actor had in regard to his calorie intake. It was here when Anil Kapoor interjected by saying, that is wasn’t necessarily about the calories. He mentioned that eating is quite important, however, he feels that as an actor he is conditioned to eat during breaks. He says it disturbs the filming process if you eat in between takes. He further added, that food makes us lethargic and admitted that he wouldn’t have stopped after eating just one and would finish the whole packet instead. He concluded by saying, the panther must not taste blood in the middle of a scene.
