Shahrukh aims for eight packs a la Aamir

His shoulder is yet to heal fully, but Shahrukh Khan aims to acquire eight pack abs for Farah Khan’s film Happy New Year .

The King Khan is set for an uphill task – to develop bulgy muscles and a brawny bod a la Aamir Khan in Ghajini . Farah Khan , who first made SRK get six packs and flaunt them in a shirtless song in Om Shanti Om , is penning a script in which SRK’s role is physically challenging to the limits the superstar hasn’t yet tested in his career so far.

“It is a very physically challenging film for which Shah Rukh will have to work out a lot and his body has to endure a lot…We will go for an eight pack this time around.” Farah is quoted as saying by a website.

However, given SRK’s yet-not-healed shoulder, the superstar won’t hit the gym before the end of this year.

Farah is certain that SRK would be physically fit to start pumping iron and make his muscles after 5-6 months. And that is when the script of ‘Happy New Year’ would also be complete.

The feisty director and mother of three kids says she’s become wackier after entering into motherhood and therefore the energy levels in ‘Happy New Year’ will be much higher than what we have seen in her previous films Main Hoon Na and ‘OSO’.

It would be a full-on masala film with SRK flaunting his eight packs.
