Aamir Khan to sport a new look in 'Thugs of Hindostan'

Amir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and the rest of the team of Thugs of Hindustan are shooting the film in Malta. 

Aamir who will play a thug in the historical drama has pierced his ears and nose for his new look. The actor has also shed a lot of weight and is appearing much leaner and fitter.

“It’s well-known how painful nose piercing can be. Not many opt for it to avoid the intense pain. Also, he has gone for two upper ear piercings, which also cause a lot of pain as they have been done on the cartilage bone. On the sets, he screams in pain even when someone touches it by mistake. He isn’t able to sleep on his right side at all,” a source close to the development was quoted saying in a Hindustan Times report.

The film is directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya and also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Sheikh in pivot roles. The film is slated to release on November 8, 2018.
