Hugh Jackman may have nominated Shah Rukh Khan as the next Wolverine, but in order to turn into the mutant superhero, the Bollywood Badshah will have to grow more than just the claws - chest hair!
Replying to a columnist, who took to her Twitter page to share her piece on why King Khan should play Wolverine, the 'Raees' actor tweeted, "Hair on the chest lady.need hair on the chest!! Working on it, though. Love Hugh & Wolverine."
In a recent interview, Jackman found the 51-year-old actor a good choice for the role that he had made legendary with his portrayal for 17 long years.
Back in 2011, when the 'Logan' star was in India for FICCI Frames, Khan was the one who hosted him and they had even set the dance floor on fire, along with Vidya Balan.
On the work front, the romance king will be next seen in Imtiaz Ali's upcoming flick alongside Anushka Sharma.
