Dangal portrays Mahaveer's story at different stages of his life. Previously, Aamir had gained a significant amount of weight to play the old Mahaveer.
The PK star lost about 25 kilograms, in order to start shooting for the film's next sequence.
Speaking to the press on his 51st birthday, Aamir revealed, "I have been concentrating completely on the weight loss. Have given six months before I start shooting for the final schedule of Dangal. In the US I have been training for almost six to seven hours daily. Running, biking, all that I can do," reports NDTV.
