Actor Rahul Sharma, currently seen in TV show "Kaal Bhairav Rahasya", has shed weight for his role and says it was an eye-opening journey for him.

"The journey has been life-changing. We do not realise how much we ignore our body sometimes. But since I was determined to become fit, I paid close attention to everything -- from the food I eat, to the hours of sleep I get. I must say, it was an eye-opening journey," Rahul said in a statement.

"I'm more in touch with myself than ever -- emotionally, physically and spiritually. I feel I can finally join the wagon of people who worship and treat their bodies like temple," he added.

Rahul is seen alongside Chhavi Pandey and Sargun Kaur in the Star Bharat show.
