Jan 9, 2016 IANS

Mumbai, Jan 8 (IANS) Actor Harman Baweja, who was last seen in an action avatar in "Dishkiyaaoon" is taking a break from the action genre to focus on two comedies he has in his kitty.

"'Jugaadu' is one where I'm playing a typical 'Dilli wala ladka' and there is another film which is untitled but that's going to be a home production. That's a romantic comedy while 'Jugaadu' is a social comedy," said Harman about his upcoming projects after launching a health supplement here.

"So basically doing comedy, no action. I've had enough injuries because of football, I'm going to take a break from action and try something different for a change," he added.

Will he return to action post these two comedies? He said: "I do little work anyways, I take my time. So let me finish these two films and then we'll decide what I'm doing next."

Harman had showcased his bulky and toned physique for his last outing "Dishkiyaaoon" where he indulged in some heavy action sequences, but looked visibly overweight at the event. His picture on the product bottle is of a well-built man. So he claims that he's going to consume the product to get lean and better than what he is on the picture so that he can start shooting for "Jugaadu" in two months.

About the reason for the weight gain, he said: "I was playing football with my friends about four months back... I had a very bad injury so I had to take bed rest for three months."

"So in the last month and a half is when I've started stepping out and have started jogging now little bit. So another two months to the road to recovery... Injuries keep on happening. I'm able to dance and do other activities," he added.

Harman has also given his voice for his father Harry Baweja's animation venture "Chaar Sahibzaade" in 2014.
