Young actor Leenesh Mattoo, who was last seen in popular drama Suhani Si Ladki is currently making waves as the Oberoi Khandaan’s spoilt brat in the newly launched show Ishqbaaz. The actor is seen playing the character of Rudra Singh Oberoi — the youngest of the three Oberoi brothers.

Apparently, Leenesh’s character on the show is extremely flamboyant and is shown to put extreme care on his looks. To make the character seem more real, the makers had asked Leenesh to work on his physique. So the actor took on a rigorous training regime and a strict diet.

Speaking about it, Leenesh says, “Working on getting the perfect body requires a lot of focus and determination. You need to follow a strict routine and religiously abide by it. You cannot put your health at risk. So to maintain my body and health, I have now taken up a complete fruit diet. I make sure that all my meals, include citrus fruits. And in spite of being a hardcore Punjabi, I haven’t eaten meat and calorie-rich foods in months now.” And by the looks of it, Leenesh’s hard work has certainly paid off. He can be seen flaunting his six-pack abs in the show.
