Ahead of the release of Aadujeevitham, the pictures of Prithviraj and his extreme physical transformation had fans and general audience compare his makeover to Hollywood star Christian Bale, who lost several kgs for his film Machinist. However, it was another actor from Aadujeevitham, who was inspired by the Batman actor.

KR Gokul, who played the role of Hakim in the film, had also lost a lot of weight. In a new social media post, the actor claimed he took inspiration from Bale for the role. He shared a picture of himself striking the pose of Bale from Machinist and wrote a long post about his inspiration.

“In preparing for my role in the movie Aadujeevitham – The Goat Life, I sought inspiration from Christian Bale’s remarkable dedication. His portrayal of an insomniac, Trevor Reznik, in the 2004 thriller, The Machinist, where he dropped 28 kg through a strict diet of water, an apple and one cup of coffee daily, deeply impressed me. Bale’s performance elevated the film to cult status, and I offer this tribute to his talent and artistry as a devoted admirer of his work,” he wrote.
