There's a lot more than meets the eye to Australian Sri Lankan Logie Award winning, ABC Utopia actor, "I'm a Celebrity get me out of here" contestant and renowned comedian Dilruk. When getting fired from accounting firm KPMG at the beginning of his career launched him into the world of comedy, Dil had no idea how high his backpacker gigs would take him. At 125kg in 2018, he took control of his life and health and went on to lose 40kg, the journey teaching him so much about loving himself at both sizes and the importance of male self love. Years of therapy and unprecedented success has brought Dilruk to where he is now, and it was such a pleasure to talk to him about it. It's our longest episode yet because it was hard to edit out all his brilliant golden nuggets so strap in for a good one.
