John Abraham to become lean in ‘Race 2′

Bollywood hunk John Abraham who received rich appreciation from his fans for his bulked up body in film Force, is busy losing muscles to get a slimmer look for the Abbas Mastan’s upcoming flick Race 2. The director duo had asked him to burn muscle to prepare him for the character.

Affirming his new looks in the films Abbas said “Yes. John Abraham was very muscular at that time but we told him that his role in our movie does not need this type of body. So, he shed all the bulk. And although he’s worked hard on his body with a South African boxing champion, we’ve not cashed in on it by going for unneeded publicity,” says Abbas.
Earlier John Abraham was contacted by the directors for Akshaye Khanna’s character in the original Race. But John was hectic in his other tasks so he turned down to do the movie.
