Riteish Deshmukh is the latest Bollywood guy to join six-pack club. He will be seen flaunting his hot bod in Sajid Nadiadwala's House Full.

The actor who is known for his boy-next-door image underwent a big makeoverwhen Farah Khan, sister of ‘Housefull' director Sajid Khan saw the actor changing.

Just one look of Ritiesh's body made Farah decide to shoot the actor in a shirtless avatar in a beach song with Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta and Jiah Khan frolicking in the sea.

Talking to a news daily, Deshmukh confirmed, "It was Farah and Sajid who wanted me to go shirtless for this song. I started working out with my trainer Vinod who has taken a lot of effort to help me achieve this body.

Instead of bulk, we decided to go for a leaner look. The look is the kind beach boys or surfers have -- lean, fit and bronzed. It`s been tough working out and maintaining a strict diet to get this body but the end result is worth it.

Farah didn`t know I had a fit body. One day when I was changing for another song she was like wow! She told me to come to Italy and she would treat me like a heroine -- like show off my body!"

However, the actor added that he was quite shy about exposing for days but became comfortable only after being made felt better by colleagues.

Riteish insists that he does not want to tagged as a sex symbol as, "I am not too comfortable with that tag. I don`t know how to react when people say I have a hot body. It`s embarrassing talking about your own body. I give my trainer full credit as he understands my body and motivated me to get a six-pack."
