Gomzi's gym is just over a 100-ft large and has over a dozen free weights, a bench press and a pulley. ``That's all you need for a good work-out.''

But before he became a gym freak, Gomzi needed no accoutrements. He was into martial arts and till now attends a weekly meditation class. And no matter how busy his schedule gets, he tries to work-out everyday, even if he gets free at 2.00 am.

Besides running his own garment company Gomzi -- which is mainly into exports, but you can also find the label at Vama and the Bombay Store -- he has just finished shooting hisdebut film Danger. Directed by first-time director, Govind Menon, it also stars Ashutosh Rana and Tara Deshpande. Gomzi is playing the bad guy. ``I am a sophisticated villain.''

The music of the film is by Whosane, and with no songs it is not a typical Bollywood formula film. ``I do not want to say much about the film until it is out next January. Let people see it before I start talking about it.'' But already the film fraternity is talking about his role as Gomzi has also been approached by other film producers. ``I have signed one more project.'' But until his first film releases he will be making sure he stays fighting fit by spending lots of time in his den.
