“I am someone who is very passionate about fitness and I very strongly believe that within us there is this champion who is willing to come out. It is only that inhibition that stops us… Age is just a number,” Suniel said over phone from Mumbai.

The actor is more than happy about the fact that the younger generation is getting increasingly focused on fitness.
“I am glad that the younger lot today are into training. Suddenly, I see a new generation of children coming up to me and saying ‘Sir, respect. We are going to start training because of you’. If one can inspire an 18-year-old, nothing like it… So, I am very happy,” he added.
