Salman Khan's new look in Tiger Zinda Hai (Movie Still)

Salman Khan had bulked up for his character in Sultan and ever since then the actor has been on a spree to lose his weight.

Over a period of one year, the superstar came back in shape for his character of Laxman in Tubelight. For his next film, Tiger Zinda Hai, Khan is required to pull off several octane action sequences.

Salman has been sweating it out at the gym to get a lean look for the espionage thriller directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. Sources have confirmed that Salman who usually weighs around 83 to 84 kg will lose around 17 kg before he returns as Tiger.

Also starring Katrina Kaif in lead, the film is expected to go on floors on 4 March 2017. Produced by YRF, Tiger Zinda Hai hits the big screen in Christmas this year.
