Though gifted with one of the best physiques in Bollywood, actor Sonu Sood says he doesn’t get tempted to bare his body easily. In an industry that is driven by demands of encashing on six packs and rippling muscles, Sonu says, “I am a tough nut to crack. I don’t take off my shirt at the drop of a hat just for the thrill of it. Unless absolutely necessary to the script, I don’t buy the idea of baring my body.” Known as a fitness buff, which is also one of the reasons why Sonu says he could bounce back to health soon after his injury that rendered his incapacitated in January, the actor doesn’t really agree with the trend of item men, if applied to himself.
“It’s very clichéd to show off your abs,” says Sonu who is all set to bring to alive the real life, human shades of the notorious
Dawood Ibrahim in the film `Shootout At Wadala'.
During the production of Dabangg Sonu’s physique had drawn appreciation from none other than the muscle Khan,
Salman Khan, himself who had complimented Sonu’s form and even joked that he was likely competition for Khan in terms of the body stats.
