/> Producers have strange ways of making their leading men happy at the end of a film so that they are open to doing another film.

Ghajini producer Madhu Mantena outdid himself by presenting a solid-gold statue designed specially to resemble Aamir's Ghajini look at the party held to celebrate the film's success earlier this week.

"8 abs included, " says Mantena proudly.

We didn't know it was 8 abs.

"It is and we can see all 8 of them on the statue, "says Mantena proudly.

The statuette is pure gold and probably cost the producer close to 70-80 lakhs though he isn't telling.

"It has s certain amount of other metal to make it mouldable. Solid gold wouldn't allow the identical Ghajini shape to be done in gold. But the idea was to create an Oscar-sized statue exclusively for Ghajini.

Aamir knew he was getting a trophy. But he didn't know it would be golden and with his Ghajini's look. He was overwhelmed, " says Mantena.

So now a second project featuring the Ghajini actor-producer is pucca

To make sure he doesn't feel bad director Murugadoss was also given a statue. Though we hear his was far less hefty and golden than Aamir's. But yes, the 8-abs were there for Muruga too.
