Mumbai: Arjun Kapoor, who is busy gearing up for his upcoming film 'Panipat', has recently shared a post that speaks his story of battling with obesity and how he encouraged himself not to give up.

A series of tweets was shared by him along with pictures of him lifting weights and working out in the gym.

He wrote, "It’s been a tough journey for me ever since I was a kid when it comes to my battle with obesity. Everyone has their own struggles I have had and continue to have mine. But the whole point of life is that we fall, we get back up and try again..."

In the second tweet, he mentioned, "efforts will pay off eventually if not today then in a week month or even a year... I started training with @Shivohamshivfit this January and slow and steady we have managed to At least lay a foundation during our prep for Panipat."

"I vowed never to give up in the 3 years it took me to lose 50kgs when I was 20 years old & I sure as hell won’t be giving up and letting go now... keeping the belief is key, u gotta keep at it and one day you will reap the benefits..." the actor expressed.

He wrote, "we all gotta keep the faith and keep at it cause what we do today will echo in time and reflect within us eventually..."

Since the announcement of the film in which the actor has been featured in the lead role, he has started practising rigorously. He is seen uploading frequent pictures from his workout sessions where he is seen moulding himself in a perfect shape.

'Panipat' is an upcoming Indian historical period drama which is directed by Ashutosh Gowarika. Apart from Arjun Kapoor, the film stars Kriti Sanon, Sanjay Dutt, Padmini Kolhapure and Zeenat Aman.
