Aamir Khan working out in local Akhadas!

We all know that Aamir Khan enjoys soaking in and exploring the local culture of the cities he visits.

At present, the actor is shooting in Ludhiana for his next project 'Dangal' and to get into the skin of his character Mr. Perfectionist has bid adieu to his high-end gym equipment, and has, in fact, adopted the local form of working out by visiting the akhadas.

A spokesperson confirms and adds, "Aamir is on a special diet, and follows a specific kind of workout, which has been customised, keeping in mind his requirements for the role. As he plays a retired wrestler in the film, his trainer, who has been with him for a year now, used special equipment for his workouts while they were in Mumbai. And now that he is in Ludhiana, his trainer suggested that they call for the equipment there as well."

Switching to the traditional way for staying fit was Aamir's idea. The spokesperson further adds, "Aamir saw the locals working out in the akhadas. He then told his trainer that since the wrestlers there exercise in the traditional form, he could do that too. Hence, he started doing the same."

Dangal, produced by Disney and Aamir Khan Productions is slated to release in Christmas 2016.
