Mumbai, June 6 Popular television actor Shabir Ahluwalia, who plays the role of Yug in the “ Ufff...Yeh Love Hai Mushkil”, cycles to the set from his home and calls it his “ritual to switch into character mode”.
Shabir said: “Cycling from home to set is more than just a way to get here—it’s my ritual to switch into character mode. It helps me clear my mind, focus my energy, and get physically ready for the long, demanding shoot ahead.”
He added that riding the bike keeps him fit, boosts his stamina, and saves time in Mumbai traffic, which he says is “a win-win”.
Shabir added: “Honestly, those moments on the saddle give me a sense of calm and control before diving into the love, drama, and chaos of the day’s scenes. It’s become one of my favourite ways to prepare for work, and I feel it shows on screen.”
