Manit Joura to stop gymming for his character on Prem Bandhan

Actor Manit Joura has gained a huge fan following for his role of Rishabh Luthra in Kundali Bhagya. The actor is seen playing Harsh Shastri who is a mentally unstable character. While talking about the character, Manit said that it is very difficult to portray such a character. He added, "Harsh is the body of a 30-year-old man with the mind of a 10-year-old  boy. So ideally you have to move like a 10-year-old boy because you think and behave like him." 

Manit mentioned that he stopped gymming because he wanted his body to be more flexible to play such an intense character. This is because gymming makes one's body stiff and thus, he won't be able to move around like a child. He mentioned, "I am loving the challenges the character is throwing at me. Looking forward to an exciting journey.”
