As the film gears up for a massive release, it has now been revealed that the actor has made significant lifestyle changes to prepare for the role both mentally and physically.
Quits Alcohol, Turns Vegetarian for Spiritual Discipline
As per a recent update posted by famous paparazzo Viral Bhayani, Ranbir Kapoor has given up alcohol and follows an austere vegetarian sattvic diet as a part of his makeover for playing Lord Ram.
