Gurmeet’s fitness post attracted his fans’ reactions. One of them wrote, “Dedication Wow!”, another user wrote, “You are one in a trillion.” “The real hero”, “Respect” read the other comments. Many of his fans simply dropped fire emojis in the actor’s comment section.
Gurmeet has always been a fitness enthusiast and often shares photos and videos from his workout regime. The actor in an interview with Times Of India said, “My dad was in the Army, so I moved cities and schools from Srinagar to Chennai. I was always part of NCC, and active in sports. I captained the hockey, volleyball and soccer teams while at school. I have grown to realise that anything is possible if you are fit – from wearing clothes of your choice to thinking positive. An unfit body means a depressed mind.”
Gurmeet will soon be seen in the Netflix series Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhein, also starring Tahir Raj Bhasin, Shweta Tripathi and Aanchal Singh.
