0 Prashant Sawant is a known name in Bollywood. No! He isn’t any 01b00established02b00 (=already in use or existing for a long period of time) star or an upcoming newcomer to 01b00watch out for02b00 (=to pay close attention in a particular situation because you are expecting something to happen). The man is a personal trainer, who is best known in the film industry for having trained none other than the 01b00badshah02b00 (=Hindi/Urdu word for king) of bollywood, the king Khan 01u01b00himself02b02u00, Shah Rukh Khan. But this time he is in the news for 01b01u01span00not02span02u02b00 01span02span01span02span00so good reasons. The trainer, whom the local 01u01b00Greek God02b02u00 Hrithik Roshan had been eager to sign, has been dropped by the the superstar after just 01u01b00a day’s work02b02u00.02br

00Hrithik had heard a lot about the work of Prashant as a trainer. But after hiring him, he was not satisfied by the training that he got. And after just a day’s work with him, the megastar told him that his style of training wasn’t going well enough. But 01u01b00birdies02b02u00 in Bollywood are citing more than just this as a reason why Prashant was dropped by Hrithik like a 01u01b00hot potato02b02u00. The reason being cited, is that Prashant tried to cash in on 01u01b00his new found fame02b02u00, by using Hrithik and Suzanne’s (=Suzanne is Hrithik's wife) name.02br

00The trainer apparently said in a TV interview, that he had trained not just Hrithik, but his wife as well. Not just that, he claimed that he had got good feedback from them too. And after this, Hrithik called him up and asked him about why he had used his wife’s name in the interview. 01u01b00Even as02b02u00 Prashant apologised, it was too late for Prashant. Hrithik was 01b00done02b00 (=finished) with him.02br

00Hrithik is popular for the fact that no matter how busy he is, he makes sure that he 01b00pumps iron02b00 (=exercise) at least an hour a day. The actor has been appreciated by many in the film industry, as the one who gives not a hundred, but a three hundred percent to whatever he does, in order to get it right. And he had to lose a lot of muscle in order to get the schoolboy image right, in the blockbuster hit Koi Mil Gaya. And all eyes are now set on his look in the Ashutosh Gowariker’s next, opposite Aishwarya Rai, Jodha Akbar.02br
