Shakira's Loss is SRK's Gain
Shah Rukh couldn't eat properly, stopped drinking water and also got cramps in his rear. And yes, he also worked out every time he shot for the song.
The song took six days to shoot and was shot in four sets constructed by Saboo Cyril at Yash Raj Studios. The sets represented the four elements in life – air, water, fire and earth.
Farah Khan had originally wanted to shoot the song with Shakira. Shakira was touring till end of September, so the song went to Shah Rukh.
Farah told Shah Rukh that she didn't want any other item girl as there were already 15 girls in the song and he would have to be the item boy.
Farah wanted SRK to do a six-pack ab-flaunting song in Main Hoon Naa too. He couldn't as he had a back operation then.
Shah Rukh's son Aryan was most keen that SRK do the song and egged him on.
Dard-E-Disco has SRK doing a fireman act which was Farah's idea of having him portrayed as a male Playboy centerfold with grease et al on him which have his female fans swooning and slathering over him.
It was a tough song for SRK to shoot. He couldn't eat properly and after the third day, he had stopped drinking water as the abs wouldn't be defined. He got cramps in his backside as he had to hold his butt in. Farah would coax him to eat some carbohydrates as she feared he would fall ill.
SRK would also work out every time he shot for the song.
At the end of the song, Shah Rukh told Farah that acting was much easier and showing off his six-pack abs was tough. After the song, Shah Rukh was shown poster-size cutouts of himself in the song, which he kept staring at, disbelievingly.
