Kiara Advani's Nutritionist Breaks Down Her War 2 Bikini Body Transformation
Kiara Advani's physical transformation for War 2 has left her fans impressed. Her nutritionist revealed how the actor achieved the bikini body with mindful eating and discipline.
On 31st July, Kiara Advani celebrated her 34th birthday. The actor gave fans more than just a celebration; she delivered a visual treat in the sizzling new track Aavan Jaavan from the much-anticipated War 2. Her on-screen chemistry with Hrithik Roshan turned heads, but it was her sculpted bikini-body debut that truly stole the spotlight. Behind that transformation was not a crash diet, but a structured wellness strategy crafted by nutritionist Nicole Linhares Kedia.

Forget extreme dieting or trend-driven cleanses. 'Kiara had a fairly clean eating style; she loves ghar ka khana," Nicole told Pinkvilla. But to get camera-ready, they elevated her routine with precision. 'The biggest challenge was adjusting her macros, especially increasing protein, while keeping her in a steady calorie deficit," she explained. This meant monitoring even the tiniest elements, like cooking oil or cheese shavings, to stay on target without taking away the joy of eating.
Protein-Packed Mornings With A Twist
Kiara Advani 's breakfast was a key focus. To fuel her long shoots, her go-to was pancakes made from oat and walnut flour, enriched with protein powder. Natural sweeteners like monk fruit extract or maple syrup added flavour, topped with berries and homemade hazelnut butter. The result? A meal that was both satisfying and functional, nourishing her body while keeping her energy up.
Balanced Meals Over Bland Ones
Lunches and dinners weren't about restriction; they were about balance. Grilled proteins like chicken, light Indian curries, and vegetables such as baby potatoes and asparagus made regular appearances. Her plates were colourful and nutrient-dense, featuring dips like edamame pesto hummus and healthy fats from avocado.
'Her meals were tailored to her physical activity for the day," Nicole shared. 'We avoided processed foods and focused on vibrant, wholesome ingredients."
Desi Fuel For Post-Workout Recovery
For recovery, Kiara ditched synthetic shakes and turned to a traditional hero: sattu chhaas. This hydrating post-workout drink, made with roasted Bengal gram flour, cumin, and coriander, provided cooling relief and muscle-repairing protein.
'Kiara stayed true to her roots with this age-old remedy," Nicole added. 'It helped her recover naturally."
There were no gimmicks involved, just mindful eating, routine, and discipline. Kiara's transformation reminds us that sustainable fitness isn't about extremes, but smart choices tailored to your body and lifestyle.

Kingdom box office collection day 4: Vijay Deverakonda film slows down, crosses ₹40 crore
Kingdom worldwide box office collection day 1: Gowtam Tinnanuri's Vijay Deverakonda, Satyadev, Venkitesh, and Bhagyashri Borse-starrer Kingdom was released in theatres on Friday. There were a lot of expectations riding on the film, especially since the last few films of Vijay haven't performed that well. Kingdom opened to positive reviews upon release and made a good start at the box office. Let's see how the film has fared by the end of its first weekend. (Also read: Naga Vamsi addresses gripe around Hridayam Lopala song missing from Kingdom: 'Want to see Vijay Deverakonda kiss?') Kingdom box office collection day 4: Vijay Deverakonda plays a constable-turned-spy in the film. Kingdom box office update As per the latest update on Sacnilk, Kingdom saw a dip on its fifth day of release, which also marks its first Sunday. It collected ₹7 crore, as per early estimates. The film started with an extended weekend in sight, opening on Thursday with ₹ 18crore. On Friday, the film collected ₹ 7.5 crore. Saturday saw a rise in collections of ₹8 crore. The overall collections now stand at ₹40.5 crore. Kingdom is yet to cross the lifetime haul of Liger, Vijay's pan-India release which hit theatres before the pandemic in 2019. Liger's lifetime haul stands at ₹ 41.17 crore. About Kingdom Kingdom tells the story of a police constable turned spy named Suri, played by Vijay, who goes to Sri Lanka on a mission for the Indian government and to look for his long-lost brother Siva, played by Satyadev. Bhagyashri plays Dr Madhu and Venkitesh plays Murugan in the action-drama film. It ends on a cliffhanger, setting up a new villain. Producer Naga Vamsi said at the press meet post-release, 'I can proudly say that no film released in 2025 in the last seven months was this technically brilliant. We made this film to Hollywood film standards.' He also confirmed at a press meet after the film's release that the sequel will be shot after Vijay finishes his other projects.

How travel turns strangers into friends
Friends just get you! Some grow up with you, others find their way to you on a road trip, a trek, or while waiting for hostel check-in. Think of Rani (played by Kangana Ranaut) in the movie Queen (2013), who stumbles into a friendship with Vijaylakshmi (Lisa Haydon) while wandering through Paris. Or the trio in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011) (played by Hrithik Roshan, Abhay Deol, and Farhan Akhtar), who set off for an adventurous escape and return with deeper bonds and lighter hearts. On Friendship Day today, we speak to people who made lifelong friends through travel — because nothing forges bonds like an adventure away from home. Lisa Haydon and Kangana Ranaut in a still from the film Queen, in which their characters developed an unexpected friendship From trail mates to soul sisters Sharanya Munsi met Dilshad during a snow trek to Brahmatal in 2019. Dilshad, a fashion designer from Goa, was travelling with friends, while Sharanya—a seasoned solo trekker—was used to going it alone. Sharanya Munsi and Dilshad 'We instantly connected and stayed in touch through Instagram,' Sharanya recalls. A trail-side chat sparked a lasting friendship, deepened by shared pets, K-dramas, and long talks across cities. During COVID, Dilshad even designed Sharanya's bridal face masks. 'She's one of the first people I call when I need help with trip logistics,' Sharanya says. 'We may live far apart, but she's become a comfort and constant outside of my usual circles.' Travel companions for life In May 2019, Kanika Yadav from Faridabad travelled to Ladakh with childhood friend Shubham Dhupar, joined by his friend Rahul Grover and colleague Gagandeep Kaur, strangers to her then. The group calls themselves 'travel companions for life.' 'We were all at crossroads in our lives, and I had never met the other two before,' she recalls. But the mountains had plans of their own. On the trip, Kanika and Rahul bonded and stayed in touch abroad, turning friendship into love; they married in 2023. Meanwhile, Gagandeep and Shubham also grew close and tied the knot this February. 'Despite all the distance and change, one trip gave me my husband, brought my best friend his partner, and made us all each other's chosen people,' says Kanika. Today, the group calls themselves 'travel companions for life.' A birthday changed everything Shivani Relia (28), from Delhi, never expected her solo birthday trip to Udaipur in 2021 to lead to a lifelong friendship. Shivani Relia and Shruti Sharma She had checked into Zostel early and was waiting in the café when she struck up a conversation with Shruti Sharma (34) from Bangalore, who was also travelling solo. 'We just started talking, and everything clicked,' says Shivani. Four years later, they're still in touch and now planning a trip to the Rann of Kutch. 'Some friendships just feel easy from the start,' Shivani adds. Work trip turned to family Pamela Gupta (25) and Tejashee Kashyap (27), both from Delhi, worked in the same industry, but their paths only crossed during a work trip to Egypt. 'It started as the usual work dynamic, but it felt like we had known each other for years. We clicked instantly and began travelling together soon after,' recalls Pamela. Four countries later, their bond has only grown stronger. They've found a rhythm despite their contrasting personalities. 'We may not agree on everything, but that's the beauty of this friendship; we hold space for each other,' Pamela reflects. Today, even their mothers are close friends. She adds, We can't go a day without checking in. We're practically family now.'
