The public and fans of Prithviraj compared his makeover to that of Hollywood actor Christian Bale, who shed a few kg for the movie Machinist, after seeing images of him and his dramatic physical makeover prior to the premiere of Aadujeevitham. The Batman actor, however, wasn’t the one who inspired another actor from Aadujeevitham.

A significant amount of weight has also been dropped by KR Gokul, who portrayed Hakim in the movie.
The actor stated in a recent social media post that Bale served as his model for the part. He did an extensive piece explaining his inspiration and provided a photo of himself striking the Machinist position.
“Christian Bale’s incredible commitment served as an inspiration for me as I prepared for my part in the film Aadujeevitham – The Goat Life.” He played an insomniac named Trevor Reznik in the 2004 movie The Machinist, and I was really amazed by how he was able to lose 28 kg by following a strict diet of water, apple, and one cup of coffee a day. I pay my respects to Bale’s skill and artistry as a passionate fan of his work, and his performance catapulted the movie into cult status,” he added.
Many positive responses were seen on social media to KR Gokul
Numerous fans have praised the post extensively. Outstanding commitment, my friend,” “Efforts made are rewarded.” “Uffff out of words bro @kr_gokul, this was unhealthy,” and “Proud of you, brother” were among the comments left on the post.
Aadujeevitham, which debuted to overwhelmingly positive reviews and has made over Rs 100 crore globally, was directed by Blessy. The movie, which was made based on the same-titled novel, came out in several languages.
