Fitness freak Rajbir Singh, who is all set to play the titular Arab prince in TV soap 'Hatim', takes inspiration from Hollywood stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone to have a chiseled body like them.

"I idolize Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone immensely. I was into body building before I entered the world of modelling and acting and it was my dream to have a body like them.

"In fact I have even trained under senior body builders on a National level. However, I had to give it up and let go of my dream once I started acting and got into theatre groups," Rajbir said.
 

For Hatim's role, Rajbir was asked to lose 20 kilograms and also learn martial arts.

Based on the popular folktales of Hatim, the show will be aired on December 28 on Life Ok.
