Vikramjeet Virk is Mahmud Ghaznavi

Punjabi hero Vikramjeet Virk is all set to make his Hindi TV debut with Zees Shobha Somnath Ki. He will be playing the Mughal ruler Mahmud Ghaznavi. Vikramjeet is spending a good deal of time pumping iron to build a body of Mahmud Ghaznavis massive proportions besides doing research on the rulers exploits,his wardrobe,his personal style and mannerisms. Studies reveal that he was one of the strongest men of his times,a powerful warrior whose ferociousness could send shivers down anyones spine. So,an actors physicality is a crucial aspect in essaying such a role. That explains why Im burning the midnight oil at the gym to get the desired look. Fortunately,Im blessed with an athletes physique and a height of 6 feet 3 inches. All I need is some more muscle mass and bulk to create the same aura of supreme power, says Vikramjeet,who is on a high-protein diet with no carbs after 7 pm. He is also learning the martial arts form Kalaripayattu for increased agility and strength.
