After wrapping up Game Changer, Ram Charan has started preparing for his next film, RC 16. The actor is all set to undergo a massive transformation for the sports drama. Recently, Ram Charan shared photos with fitness coach Shivoham as he began his body transformation journey for the film.

Sharing photos in his fitness gear, Ram Charan wrote, “Beast mode on #RC16 loading…”

Shivoham also took to his Instagram handle to share photos with Ram Charan and wrote, “It’s an absolute honor to work with you on this transformation journey. Thank you @alwaysramcharan for having me on board as your fitness coach. Im looking forward to the road ahead !!! It’s going to be great.”

Take a look at the posts below:

For the uninitiated, Shivoham is a renowned fitness coach who has earlier worked with actors including Ranbir Kapoor in Animal and Amitabh Bachchan, among others. He is known for helping stars with their body transformations. According to reports, Ram Charan will be training with Shivoham to prepare for RC 16.

As RC 16 is believed to be a sports drama, reports suggest that Ram Charan will be changing his entire look. He will be sporting a ripped and leaner body in the film.

Meanwhile, RC 16 is going to be directed by Buchi Babu Sana. In the film, Ram Charan will be seen sharing screen space with actress Janhvi Kapoor for the first time. Reports suggest that the shooting of the film will start in October 2024, as the pre-production is still underway.

RC 16 will reportedly be based in Uttarandhra, and Ram Charan would even practice the local accent. Nonetheless, the film is produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru and Mythri Movie Makers.

Before RC 16, fans will get to see Ram Charan in S Shankar’s Game Changer. The film also features Kiara Advani as the female lead. Reports suggest that the film is aiming for a Christmas release this year.

Will Arvind Kejriwal Step Down? Meeting With Lt Governor This Evening

Sep 17, 2024 · 8:28 AM Blog

Arvind Kejriwal, after his bail from the Supreme Court on Saturday, had made the shock announcement that he would step down from the post and seek to clear his name in the people’s court.
On Sunday, Mr Kejriwal announced that he would resign two days later. “I got justice from the legal court, now I will get justice from the people’s court… I want to ask the people of Delhi, is Kejriwal innocent or guilty? If I have worked, vote for me,” he added.
But even after a series of meetings on Sunday and Monday, it is not yet known who will succeed him.
On Monday, Mr Kejriwal had sought the views of the party’s Political Affairs Committee on the matter and had one-on-one meetings with some leaders, senior leader Saurabh Bhardwaj said.
Mr Kejriwal’s former Deputy, Manish Sisodia, has made a similar vow, meaning they are both out of the equation. Mr Sisodia was also arrested in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case and was in jail for 18 months before getting bail.
The list of probables is led by AAP’s most prominent minister Atishi. The others include Saurabh Bhardwaj, Raghav Chadha, Kailash Gahlot and Sanjay Singh.
Mr Kejriwal has sought a November election along with that of Maharashtra. His party has said the people are eager to elect him back. Assembly polls in Delhi are due in February next year.
Mr Kejriwal’s election, though, will not solve his legal problems. The Supreme Court, while refraining from asking him to step down, has said that he cannot go to his office or the Delhi Secretariat, or sign files without Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena’s consent — effectively restricting him from functioning as a Chief Minister.
Mr Kejriwal’s announcement that he would resign has brought jibes from the BJP, which has asked why he was not doing it “today”.
The Delhi Congress, AAP’s bitter foes despite the INDIA bloc alliance, called it a political stunt, “It would have been better if he had resigned when Delhi was facing floods and drinking water shortage,” said Delhi Congress chief Devendra Yadav.
