Mumbai: Abhishek Bachchan, who is not known to be a fitness enthusiast, is now following a strict regime to get back in shape. The actor started the routine months ago when he decided that it was time to get rid of the few extra pounds. And there seems to be a story behind it. A source says, “It was kind of a dare that he accepted from Shah Rukh on the sets of Happy New Year. This was after several portions of the film were already shot. Shah Rukh told Abhishek that if he lost those extra kilos, he would allow him to go shirtless on the world tour.”
The entire team of HNY will be leaving for a world tour next month as part of the promotions. The source added, “Ever since he accepted the dare, Abhishek has been very sincere about his training. He has also altered his diet. His co-star Sonu Sood has also given him a lot of inputs regarding his workout regime.” A friend of the actor has confirmed that he has lost around 7-9 kg thanks to the strict regime. Looks like Abhishek is leaving no stone unturned to flaunt a shirtless body.
