Romesh Ranganathan reveals how much weight he lost from ‘diet and exercise’

Romesh Ranganathan, who will be appearing in the upcoming Christmas special episode on The Jonathan Ross Show alongside Willem Dafoe, Ariana Debose, Katherine Jenkins, Kevin Bridges, Boy George, and Claudia Schiffer, opened up about how much weight he has lost.

He revealed that he has lost three stone in weight from 'diet and exercise'.


“I have lost a lot of weight, but obviously it does not matter. We are in an age of body positivity and rightly so. And I feel you shouldn’t be celebrated more because you lost weight,” he said.

The comedian went on to add, "I went round to see my mum after I lost weight… I was thinking, 'Where have all my body issues come from?; I knocked on the door. She answered and she looked at me and she went, "Oh my God, thank you, Lord. Finally, he looks how I want him to look! I just felt like, you might be part of the problem…”

Meanwhile, Romesh, who is best known for The Misadventures of Romesh Ranganathan, The Ranganation, Rob & Romesh Vs, A League of Their Own, Avoidance, Romantic Getaway, as host of The Weakest Link, and his own BBC Sounds and Radio 2 show For The Love of Hip Hop, is gearing up for his new tour Hustle.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
