Fond of Salman Khan's physique: Leenesh Mattoo

Actor Leenesh Mattoo, who will next be seen in the upcoming TV show "Ishqbaaaz", says he is inspired by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's toned physique.

Leenesh will be playing Rudra Singh Oberoi in the show. For his role, the makers asked him to flaunt his chiselled frame.

In a few scenes, he was required to be bare chested and flaunt his six-packs.

Talking about it, he said: "Working out in the gym is a part of my daily routine. I religiously follow it as my role in the show demands my body to look extremely fit and sculptured. I am really fond of Salman sir's physique.

"He is an inspiration for most of us young actors in the gym," Leenesh said in a statement.

Apart from him, the show will also star Nakuul Mehta and Kunal Jaisingh.
