But when you have that weight and you are physically carrying that weight, your whole performance changes. Body language changes weight. Your movement, walking, running and everything changes. That’s why I gained weight. Abhishek Bachchan says Sujoy Ghosh and Diya Annapurna Ghosh were in favor of prosthetics but I was against it.
