In an exclusive interview with Zee News Digital, The Great Khali opened up on his love for food, balanced diet and association with KFC. Q. So, what goes behind the success of The Great Khali, pls explain?  A. I never thought that I would become this huge global icon, The Great Khali, or do brand endorsements, work in Hollywood and Bollywood. I wasn’t aiming for this. My area of concern is as simple as any regular Indians’. We celebrate so many festivals and we end up overeating, so I would put in simple restrictions for myself – like not taking up festivals as an excuse to break my diet or consume too much sweet. But one thing that was consistent was that I never gave up, I kept trying and trying and doing my best.
