Actor Saif Ali Khan has been sporting a paunch for a while now. In fact, ever since he was beset with health problems, the actor has been carrying the paunch. It seemed to have become an intrinsic part of him, almost like his flamboyant style. But it seems that the actor is now bent on doing something about that paunch.

The actor has hit the gym with a vengeance and is working out everyday. On the days that he has a shoot, Saif ensures that he manages to squeeze in an hour at least for cardio exercises. With his close friends, the other two Khans, Salman and Shah Rukh having hit the gym with a vengeance, it is only natural to expect that Saif will do the same. Of course, it may also have something to do with a certain Bipasha Basu. It is believed that Saif now frequents the same gym as hers in Bandra. A while ago, they had also been spotted working out together. So we wonder if this new-found zest for exercise is only motivated by the sight of his paunch or is it something else. Whatever be the reason, Saif will soon be rid of the paunch and will be back to sporting the lean mean look.
