Actor Vijay Varma leaves no stone unturned when it comes to his acting, physique, and appearance. He looks fit, dapper, and attractive in Netflix's Jaane Jaan. The actor shared that his remarkable progress is all due to a diet consisting of simple homemade foods like upma, poha, khichdi, and dahi.

According to nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar backed these basic homemade meals saying that these can help achieve our fitness goals and support weight loss. She also added that the misconception about weight loss that we must avoid traditional foods in favor of trendy exotic cuisines, is inaccurate, as the key to effective fat loss often lies within our traditional culinary choices.
