Aamir sheds his six-pack abs

Aamir Khan's new look in Ghajini hit the headlines hard. It has Aamir flaunting his six-pack abs but it is said that in his next release, that is in Raj Kumar Hirani's 3 Idiots, he is going to remain covered throughout the film and will have a lean look. He worked a lot for his look in Ghajini but knowing Aamir, he wouldn't do injustice to his role in 3 Idiots too, where he is said to be playing a softer role - that of a college student.

According to sources he plays an adventurous and a handsome guy who happens to love his friends more than his parents. And as the role is not action packed, he doesn't need to flaunt his physique, and knowing Aamir, he is of the kind who emphasises on his acting and doesn't believe in showing of his body only because he has a mindblowing physique.

Director Rajkumar Hirani has kept Aamir in mind and knows what his character will look like in the film. It is said that a lot of changes were made to Aamir's character than what it is in the book. Aamir will need to loose lots of weight and will have to walk with a hunched back.

As Rajkumar Hirani is a perfectionist in his work and has done wonders in his Munnabhai movies, Aamir decided not to interfere in his work. He is concentrating on his character, as he has full faith in Raju's script and direction.

The shooting of the film will resume in December in Bangalore and that's where the largest part of the film will be shot. Kareena Kapoor is supposed to be playing the female lead in the film which is based on Chetan Bhagat's novel Five Point Someone. The movie is to be released in 2009.
