Ravi Kishan forced to lose weight for dance

New Delhi: Actor Ravi Kishan is sweating it out literally. The Bhojpuri superstar has shed 4 kg ever since he entered the fifth season of dance reality show ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’."I have lost 4 kg till now because of the workout I get from rehearsing for my performance. I am sure I will end up losing much more weight by the time show reaches its finale. But nevertheless I am enjoying this experience. It is much more difficult than acting, but it is fun for sure," said Ravi in a statement. "There is hardly any break in cycle.
