A few years back, Shah Rukh Khan had developed a set of six pack abs for Farah Khan 's movie ' Om Shanti Om '. He had revealed his six pack abs in the much popular song Dard-e-Disco.

Once again the actor is working with his good friend director Farah Khan and this time he has been asked by her to go one step further and develop a set of eight pack abs for their next venture ' Happy New Year '.

Expectations of today's audience from their stars and their films have increased manifold. Therefore, Farah Khan might have felt that the audiences, who have liked SRK in ' Om Shanti Om ' having six pack abs, would be thrilled to see him with a set of eight pack abs.

Along with SRK in the lead, the film ' Happy New Year ' also stars John Abraham , Abhishek Bachchan and Boman Irani in pivotal roles. John Abraham already has a well toned body and therefore his presence may also have stimulated SRK to be extra fitness conscious.

According to a source, Shah Rukh Khan has agreed to work hard and get an eight pack by September. The film is expected to go on the floors around this time. Although Farah Khan has not confirmed this, she has hinted that SRK will surely surprise the audience once again this time.

But it also has to be kept in mind that along with six or eight pack abs, a film also needs to have an incredible script in order to impress today's intelligent audiences!
