Rohit Roy puts on eight kilos for Peterson Hill

Mumbai, Jan 21 (IBNS): Actor Rohit Roy has put on weight for his upcoming show, Peterson Hill.

The much anticipated comedy show will go on air in a few days. The actor put on a few kilos to suit his character`s demand.

But, Rohit is worried that it will be hard for him to lose it.

The actor will be seen in the central character of a station manager of a railway station. For the inquisitive ones, the title, Peterson Hill is a station near Shimla.

The actor says, “For the character, I had to put on eight kilos so that it looks cuter and more approachable. One may think, what’s there to put on weight? My point is once I put on, how am I going to shed it? This is the toughest thing I have had to do especially when I have been a fitness enthusiast all my life. I am happy that I am prepping for the role, but I am also a bit worried,”.

The crew has already started shooting for the show, and had a special sequence in Simla on Jan 2.

The actor was earlier seen in a perfectly opposite role of tough cop in other show Encounter.

Peterson Hill is written, produced and directed by Ashwani Dhir.
