Hina Khan has been stunning everyone with her red carpet looks and now, she is ready to wow people with her slim and athletic figure. The actor recently posted a photo of her washboard abs on her Instagram account and was flooded with messages from her fans and well-wishers.

Ask Hina about her newly acquired physique and she says, “I have worked quite hard to get these results. But I haven’t done this for any role. I wanted to be fitter and look better. I never used to work out religiousl­y when I was shooting for my TV show. In the last one year, I began working out and my body responded so well to the workouts. I didn’t expect such results so soon. I’ve got many positive messages on social media and I feel if I can inspire even one person to work out, all of this would be worth it.”

Hina isn’t keen on getting more defined abs or a muscular look as she feels it won’t suit her. She says, “I don’t think I would be able to carry that off. I want to be fitter than before and maintain my current look. In fact, I have become a gym enthusiast and people say that I inspire them with my style and fashion choices, Indian or western. And that’s why I have decided to up the fashion game in the gym as well (laughs). I shopped a lot of gym wear during my last visit to London, (UK) and I think when you feel sexy and fashionabl­e in the gym, you feel good about yourself. It gives you that extra push to work harder in the gym.”

On the work front, Hina is tight-lipped about being a part of Ekta Kapoor’s new TV show. Hina has been spotted at events with Ekta and keeps hinting that she will work the latter very soon.

“About the show, I would rather Ekta make the announceme­nt. I have met Ekta a couple of times recently. Sometimes, you get a vibe from a person and even if you haven’t worked with them, you form a connection. Ekta said she likes me as an actor, which was really wonderful to know. I admire her as a person and producer.”

I have worked quite hard to get these results. But I haven’t done this for any role as I wanted to be fitter and look better. I never used to work out religiousl­y... HINA KHAN, ACTOR
