Actors these days gain and lose weight as and when their roles demand. But in Shah Rukh’s case, wearing a superhero costume for long hours while shooting caused the weight loss.
Shah Rukh revealed that he has lost a lot of weight while shooting for Ra.One where he plays a superhero. “I had to wear the superhero suit made of silicon and it was super hot in Mumbai and London. I had to wear a skin-tight suit under the superhero suit and do a lot of stunts wearing it, which made me sweat, hence the weight loss,” reveals Shah Rukh.
He adds, “I couldn’t eat or drink when I wore the suit since I couldn’t use the wash room. It was not easy removing it and wearing it again, so I had to leave it on.”
The movie with Kareena Kapoor playing the female lead will release mid next year.
