Salman Khan going through physical transformation for Race 3

Over the years, we have seen many Bollywood stars undergoing extreme physical transformation to get into the skin of their characters.

While Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan put on pounds of weight to play an ageing wrestler in Dangal, Randeep Hooda stopped eating to play the character of Sarbjit Singh convincingly in the biographical drama Sarbjit.

Salman Khan, the actor know for his masculine physique, is also going to shed many kilos to pull off his character in the upcoming film Race 3.

An Indian newspaper said, "Yes, Salman will be losing at least 7-8kg. For the same purpose, the actor has made changes in his diet regimen to shed weight and acquire a lean physique. There have also been a number of changes in his workout regimen to meet the weight requirements."

It added: "There will be high-octane, stylised action sequences in the action thriller, so Salman feels a leaner physique will go best with his new avatar."

Reports suggest that Salman will be seen in a stylish and very classy avatar in 'Race 3' and he is leaving no stone unturned to achieve his desired look.

The film also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Bobby Deol, Saqib Saleem and Daisy Shah and is expected to be released by 15 June 2018.
