Things that seem insignificant are the ones that have the biggest impact, says Ritika Singh

Chennai, May 5 (IANS) Actress Ritika Singh, who shot to limelight with her stellar performance as a boxer in director Sudha Kongara's 'Irudhi Suttru' ('Saala Khadoos' in Hindi), has now put out an inspiring video on how she lost excess weight and got back into shape despite her nagging knee injuries.

Taking to Instagram, the actress put out a video at the beginning of which she disclosed how she had gained weight and was weighing 72 kilogrammes. She then showed how she worked out to reduce weight and get back into shape.

It wasn’t just the fact that I had hit an all time high on the weighing scale, but the fact that my knee injuries got worse. The pain was terrible. I couldn’t move, kick or dance effortlessly. That’s when I looked at myself in the mirror and said enough, it’s time to lock in and look the best you’ve ever looked. And here we are."
