Govinda has hired a martial arts and physical trainer and is working on his physique.

Govinda wants to be a healthy handsome and fit. Dharamji has always been my role model.. when I look at myself in the mirror I see glimpses of him in myself. That makes me feel good."

Govinda admits that "I've done action films in the past like Hatya  and Shola Aur Shabnam. But they were not full-on actioners.  I now want to do an action film with stunts of an international standard. I have already lost a lot of weight.  But it is not enough. I want to lose some more." On a recent trip to London, Govinda discovered yoga.  Govinda's life -style has changed completely.  Thanks to yoga.  And though he does not admit it, it was Celina Jaitley who introduced him to a new lifestyle.

Says Govinda, "Yoga has changed my life. No matter what my schedule, I have to do yoga every morning.  It is not about just losing weight.

I lost a lot of weight earlier this year when I was shooting in Bangkok with Suniel Shetty for Loot.  I can get into tight clothes without cringing."
