Kiara Advani turned up the heat on her birthday, July 31, when the makers of her upcoming film War 2 dropped the first romantic track, Aavan Jaavan. Fans couldn’t stop talking about her sizzling chemistry with Hrithik Roshan. But what truly stole the show was Kiara’s super sleek bikini look, a first for her on the big screen. And everyone is asking: how did she get that hot bod? Her nutritionist, Nicole Linhares Kedia, revealed all the details in a chat with Pinkvilla, and it turns out the secret was a mix of clean eating, discipline, and some desi magic.
Kiara’s diet for War 2
Nicole shared that Kiara didn’t follow a crash diet, instead, her plan was all about balance. “Kiara had a fairly clean eating style; she loves ghar ka khana. But for this transformation, the biggest challenge was adjusting her macros, especially increasing her protein intake while keeping her in a steady calorie deficit. We had to be extremely precise, down to the oil used in cooking or even a few shavings of Parmesan on her Buddha Bowl,” Nicole explained.
The idea wasn’t to cut out foods Kiara loved, but to optimise every meal so it helped her build lean muscle and reduce body fat.
Kiara’s go-to breakfast
Kiara started her mornings with a protein-rich breakfast that kept her fueled for long shoot hours. Pancakes made with oat flour, walnut flour, and protein powder were her go-to. To make them both healthy and tasty, she used monk fruit extract or maple syrup as sweeteners, and topped them with fresh berries and homemade hazelnut butter.
This wholesome meal gave her the energy she needed without feeling heavy.
Kiara’s nutritious yet delicious meals
For lunch and dinner, Nicole planned meals that were light yet satisfying. Kiara often had lean proteins like grilled chicken or light chicken curry, paired with a colourful mix of vegetables such as asparagus and baby potatoes. Avocado, vegetable crudités, and fun sides like edamame pesto hummus added variety.
“Her meals were tailored to her physical activity for the day. We avoided excessive fats or processed foods and focused on vibrant, wholesome ingredients,” Nicole said.
Kiara’s desi drink for post-workout recovery
After her workouts, Kiara skipped the fancy shakes and turned to an Indian classic, sattu chhaas. Made with roasted Bengal gram flour, cumin powder, and coriander leaves, this drink was hydrating, cooling, and rich in protein.
“Kiara stayed true to her roots with this age-old remedy. It helped her recover naturally while giving her body the nutrients it needed,” Nicole shared.
No fad diets, no crazy restrictions, Kiara’s transformation for War 2 was the result of smart planning and consistency. Her love for home-style food, combined with a carefully calculated diet, helped her achieve a toned, bikini-ready body that’s now the talk of the town.
