The Andhra University campus will host the All India Inter-University Best Physique (men) competition from March 2 to 4. Student-athletes from across the country will compete for the national title, said Prof. N. Vijay Mohan, Director of Physical Education at AU.

He said that 500 bodybuilders from over 120 universities nationwide will participate. A dedicated team of 200 coaches and technical officials will be on-site to ensure the competition meets international standards.
