New Delhi: Baahubali: The Conclusion is marking its arrival on the big screen with updates almost every now and then. And yes, we are every bit excited.

On that note, have you seen Rana Daggubati's new look as Bhallala Deva? Rana garnered immense critical acclaim for playing the mean king in S S Rajamouli's magnum opus Baahubali: The Beginning, which released in 2015. For six months, Rana trained in martial arts and followed a rigorous regime for his warrior look.

Are you still breathing?

This is the result of five months of training for two and a half hours each day.
 

In the sequel, scheduled to release on April 28, 2017, Rana will be playing a younger version of Bhallala Deva. Talking about his new look for Baahubali 2 Rana told news agency IANS: "The older Bhallala is stronger and beefier. So, I weighed around 108-110 kg for some portions in both the films. His younger version is strong too, but leaner. So I lost a few kilos for that. My weight has dropped to 92-93 kg now."

Rana's diet, monitored by his personal trainer Kunal Gir, has been high on carbs and protein, reported IANS. "I've been shuttling between cardio and weight training. I eat every two and a half hours and there's a nutritionist present around the clock. He conducts regular check-ups to ensure that we are on the right track," he added.
