'He had to work out even on the sets right before the shoot and had to take care of the proper posture required for the fight sequence,' informs Prabhu Dheva, seen here with his leading man.
Devgn lifts some weights as part of his training.
Some high intensity push ups for those enviable abs, under the watchful eye of his trainer.
The dedicated actor that Devgn is, 'He even worked through a fever and insisted on working out ahead of the shoot, which was extremely difficult,' an impressed Prabhu Dheva shares.
