New and Improved Abhi!

Abhishek Bachchan is 17 kgs lighter and flaunts a newly acquired Mediterranean tan, thanks to the Cannes sojourn with wife Aishwarya Rai. It's just the right physique to take on Ram's army, he jokes, about his title role in Mani Ratnam's Ravana.

Bachchan made a quick stopover at Delhi's Emporio Mall where he attended Louis Vuitton's one year anniversary in India on Tuesday. "Fans will be pleased that I have lost my baby fat," he says before talking about the diet and exercise regimen he has been on for the past six months.
