Mumbai, May 21 (NationPress) Following the success of Pushpa 2: The Rule, Allu Arjun is set to captivate audiences once again with a thrilling new role in Atlee's upcoming project, currently referred to as AA22xA6.
To prepare for this character, AA is undertaking a significant physical transformation, with guidance from renowned fitness coach Lloyd Stevens. Sharing a glimpse of his rigorous training, Stevens recently posted a workout snapshot on his Instagram.
In the image, AA displayed his fitness tracker while Stevens was seen in the backdrop.
The smartwatch indicated that the Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo star had burned 295 kilocalories during his intense gym session, maintaining an average heart rate of 140 BPM, fluctuating between 101 and 167 BPM.
Stevens captioned the post with “@alluarjunonline POV.”
Prior to working with AA, the celebrity trainer assisted Ranveer Singh, NTR, and Mahesh Babu in achieving their physical goals for various roles. He notably collaborated with NTR for SS Rajamouli's RRR, alongside Ram Charan.
Reports suggest that this untitled film will showcase Allu Arjun in a dual role, contrary to earlier speculations of having two protagonists. AA's team has confirmed that AA22xA6 will exclusively feature Allu Arjun as the lead.
Produced by Sun Group's Kalanithi Maran under the Sun Pictures banner, the project was officially announced in April of this year.
On their X timeline, the production house stated, “Get ready for a Landmark Cinematic Event. #AA22xA6 - A Magnum Opus from Sun Pictures.”
They also released an announcement video where world-class technicians involved in the film shared their insights about the script.
