Ajay Devgn has been working out for his forthcoming film Bol Bachchan.

Reports suggest the actor, who plays a Pehelwan (wrestler) in Rohit Shetty’s upcoming comic caper shocked the entire unit by lifting a very heavy traditional Akhada for a particular scene.

The equipment known as the ‘Ballam’ weighs around 50 kilos and is used by real Pehelwans in traditional Desi Akhadas to train and work out.

One particular scene required the actor to lift the 50 kilo ‘ballam’ like an actual Pehelwan.

Director Rohit Shetty had kept a lighter Ballam, which weighed much less than the original one, ready for the shot.

However, Devgn insisted on using the real Ballam as he wanted the shot to look perfect. And with a strong and fit physique like his, he managed to lift the very heavy equipment.

‘Bol Bachchan’ produced by Ajay Devgn Films and Shree Ashtavinayak LFS Infra Ltd and presented by Twentieth Century Fox hits screens on July 2012.
