However, after wrapping up his portions for the movie, the actor had to shed weight. This time around, he's required to look lean for Sanjay Khanduri's Gyaarah Chaalis Ki Last Metro.

However, trouble cropped up when Zilla Ghaziabad producer Vinod Bachchan thought of adding an extensive action sequence. between Vivek and Sanjay Dutt, who plays a cop in the film.

After some deliberation and consultation with director Anand, they decided to include an action sequence.

Needless to say, when Vinod and Anand went to meet Vivek, they were shocked. "To look lean for Gyaarah Chaalis..., Vivek had lost four kilos. They're now discussing with producer Amit Chandra to arrive at a solution that benefits both parties," informed our source.

Amit confirmed the dilemma but said they had not been able to arrive at a solution yet. "The dates are all too tight, because after Gyaarah Chaalis, Vivek needs to bulk up again for the Krrish sequel.
