The new approach comes after trying other methods such as dieting and working out at the gym in vain.

He revealed that he does not have the required discipline when it comes to dieting and that is why the previous methods he tried, failed to work.

" People are advising me to fast and work out to reduce weight. Do you know how hard it is to lose weight?  I have dieted by force, even being locked up but people who diet know how how hard it is to stay away from food. I have done all sorts of exercises but when it comes to food, I don't have the discipline to prevent myself. I have taken weight reduction pills but they don't work for me in the end."

The musician has now undergone gastric balloon weight loss procedure which he says it is working for him. For two weeks, he only smells the food brought to him and sends it away.

He is hopeful that his weight loss journey will be a success and at the end of it all he will acquire his desired body shape.
