Actor Emraan Hashmi has been oscillating between being lean and bulky for his roles

After piling on kilos for Shanghai to get the podgy look, actor Emraan Hashmi had to work out to get six-pack-abs for his role in Jannat 2. Now for his upcoming Ghanchakkar, which he is presently shooting, the actor has two different looks. While one requires him to be muscular and beefed-up, the other one requires him to be lean. The actor had gained muscle and had beefed up but now the director Rajkumar Gupta wants him to lose some of the muscle for his next schedule, which is crucial. The actor plays a conman, who is an expert at breaking locks, in the film. Once that shoot is done, Emraan, who has been oscillating between being lean and bulky, will have to start gaining muscle soon. This time it’s for Karan Johar’s Ungli for which he has to sport a bulky look. Says Emraan, “I have two very distinct looks for Ghanchakkar and Ungli. Simultaneously I am in the middle of promoting Raaz 3, so it’s quite a challenging task, to juggle between the looks without affecting either of the schedules,” says Emraan. ‘Though the constant weight loss and gain is affecting him, the professional that he is, the actor is doing whatever he needs to justify his character the film,” adds a source.
