Boney Kapoor revealed that he followed his late wife Sridevi’s advice and lost weight before getting a hair transplant.
Boney Kapoor recently got a hair transplant for which he held a press conference and encouraged others to try the procedure. He said that it is harmless under the supervision of his doctors.
Addressing the media, the filmmaker spoke about several aspects of his life and how his late wife Sridevi wanted him to focus on losing weight and was not keen on getting a hair transplant.
Speaking at the Eugenics Hair Sciences press conference, Boney Kapoor revealed the reason behind the delay in the hair transplant. He said, “My wife Sridevi used to tell me, ‘Boney, first lose weight, then you can get your hair fixed. Later, some people told me that bald people are often lucky. They gave the example of Yash Chopra.
They used to say, ‘Look, Yash Chopra is also bald, but very rich.’ So I got convinced by their words and remained bald for some time. Finally, one day, I agreed to get a hair transplant. In three days, they transplanted about 6 thousand hairs.” Boney also said, “After seeing the results, I suggested it to Akshay Khanna as well. People are often afraid of pain, but believe me, it is not that bad.” Boney told that he had lost 14 kg of weight before getting a hair transplant.
He said, “During the process, I remembered the advice of my wife who wanted me to lose weight before the hair transplant, so I went on a diet and lost about 14 kilos and now I am in better shape. It is difficult for me to exercise, but still after I lost some weight, I went to the doctor for the hair transplant.”
During the same conversation, Boney joked that his wife was against the hair transplant, now he knows why. “Even Shree was skeptical about the hair transplant.
Just today, I was discussing this with my daughter and asked her, ‘Why was your mother against my hair transplant?’ She said, ‘She thought you will become a better looking person after this.’ It was a secret till date”, Boney Kapoor told.
