I saw how my grandfather had a thin frame and was always fit. So I followed him and started to eat like him which helped me lose weight. I also felt a lot more healthy and energetic since then),” Bajpayee shared.

Phir usme tweaking ye ki maine… fasting kabhi 12 ghante ka 14 ghante ka… raat ka dinner maine dheere dheere hatana shuru kiya… (Then I tweaked it further and started fasting for 12 hours to 14 hours and slowly, I eliminated dinner completely),” he explained, adding that the habit also helped him to stay away from heart-related diseases as well as diabetes and cholesterol.
