Viral: Inside Alia Bhatt's 5 AM Workout - "No Shortcuts," Says Her Coach

"She's one of the hardest workers in the room," said Sohrab Khushrushahi

Is there anything Alia Bhatt cannot do? We think not. The superstar not only enjoys a thriving career as an actor-producer but is also a successful entrepreneur. If you thought most of it was pure luck, the actress' fitness coach Sohrab Khushrushahi is here to tell you otherwise. In his words, Alia Bhatt enjoys the success that she does because “she works so damn hard and takes nothing for granted, not even her fitness.” Sharing a video of Alia Bhatt lifting weights in the gym under his supervision, Sohrab explained that she is always “one of the hardest workers in the room.” In a detailed caption, he wrote, “‘She's a star, obviously she doesn't work hard and it's all fake'. Let's turn that on its head a lil and be more factual. ‘She's a star cause she works so damn hard and takes nothing for granted, not even her fitness.' Now, that sounds just about right.”

“Let's understand one thing, being a star doesn't mean you don't work hard. I've known Alia for 4 years now (that's how long we've been training together), yes, she, like every other human being, has phases where she works super hard and those where she takes some time off. But the one thing that's stayed constant through the 4 years that I've known her, she's one of the hardest workers in the room,” Sohrab added.

Giving us a glimpse of the star's hectic schedule, the fitness coach added, “Up and training at 5 am today before a 12-hour shoot day - that's hard work. Is it something out of the ordinary? No - but before they're called stars, they're human beings - just like everyone else who work as hard if not harder. Working our way back to being stronger, fitter and faster - no shortcuts.”
