Superstar Aamir Khan on Monday revealed his muscular look for his upcoming film "Dangal", in which he will be seen playing the role of a young Indian wrestler named Mahaveer Phogat.
Aamir used the digital platform to share an image of his muscular look.
Clad in a black ganji (vest), Aamir has a beefed up look in the image clicked by photographer Avinash Gowariker.
He tweeted it and captioned it as: "Two days to go before I shoot for young Mahaveer. Avinash Gowariker."
In the movie, the actor showcases different ages of the wrestler. He has been undergoing rigorous workout sessions for this. He had to previously gain weight going from 68 kg to 93 kg in six months for his role of the ageing wrestler during the first phase of the film's shoot.
Following that, the 50-year-old actor had a weight loss target of 25 kg, before he could begin shooting for the next phase.
The film will also star actors Sakshi Tanwar, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra.
"Dangal", directed by Nitesh Tiwari, is scheduled to release on December 23.
