  • Terun is in really good shape! 

HOW VINNIE CHANGED TERUN'S LIFE

  • His (ex)girlfriend told him he was becoming too fat 
  • He was chubby in the athlete-context and he really wanted to change this 
  • Everything mentioned on the Facebook group appeared foreign, especially given Terun's ethnic background
  • He lost tons of weight and gained tons of muscle and confidence 
  • He became "India's Angriest NSNGer"
  • He believes that NSNG is an awesome lifestyle with lots of flavor(s)

INDIA

  • Cows are sacred, there are many Yaks
  • India is so diverse, and according to Tarun, it is "full of hypocrites"
  • Chicken is often eaten, but most people live on grains 

DOCUMENTARY

  • Tarun will be in an ABC-like documentary about Indians living in Australia 
  • He is in an arranged marriage section
  • He told an Indian girl that he ate red meat and she rejected him for it 
  • The filmmaker has even seen the transition within Tarun's life
