Vivan, 37, was last seen in Salman Khan's home production film "Hero" as a villain.
"I am doing 'Dangal' with Aamir Khan. Its (role) kind of (negative) character, but I can't reveal much. I have finished one scene with him (Aamir) and have couple of more scenes to finish. I am playing a wrestler (for which) I have to put on weight. I have to gain ten kilos with muscles," Vivan told PTI.
"He (Aamir) is going to lose weight, he would come in shape. He is doing lot of things. We have a month of akhada (wrestling arena) training with actual wrestlers. We have to get our Haryanvi diction right. I would go back to shoot for the film in June," he said.
"I got a lot of acclaim for 'Hero'. It was gratifying. Aamir praised my work in 'Katti Batti,' which was overwhelming. I hope I keep getting good work. I am trying to pitch myself as a negative hero. I want that space," he said.
The "Chak De! India" actor reveals he was going to be part of director Vikramaditya Motwane's next film "Bhavesh Joshi" but the movie got shelved.
"I was going to do Vikramaditya Motwane's 'Bhavesh Joshi', that is shelved for the time being."
