A sneak peek into Mani Ratnam's Guru
Madhavan was asked to shed weight so that he looked like a 22 year old. And he did shed eight kg.
The actor told rediff.com in an earlier interview, "He (Mani Ratnam) told me, if anybody can do it, you can, because you have a face for it. So, I took one month off and lost a huge amount of weight and put on some colour. I lost weight without starving."
