Anjali, who is making her acting debut with the show, was asked by makers to gain weight. However, she refused to do so.
"I have lived a very active life all this while. Being someone who loves to trek and cycle to maintain a steady weight, gaining too much weight is a big no-no. I am at 108 kg for the role and any more change might get difficult to reverse," Anjali said in a statement.
'Dhhai Kilo Prem', which will be aired on Star Plus starting from April 3, is an unusual story of two imperfect individuals -- Deepika and Piyush (Meherzan Mazda). Not only Anjali, even Meherzan has gained 16 kg weight for his role.
