Imran Khan is a star. In the little time he's been in the film industry he has tasted success and failure, but hasn't let either get to him. And he says what he likes best about stardom is the fact that he gets "great service" at restaurants.Imran has been shooting round the clock for Aamir Khan's "Delhi Belly" directed by Abhinay Deo. There's patchwork shooting to be done for Soham Shah's "Luck", Imran's only other film on hand. Says the affable young "Jaane Tu..." star: "For 'Kidnap' I beefed up a lot. Did weights and worked out rigorously. Then for 'Delhi Belly' I needed to get lean. Now I'll have to get bulky again for the remaining portion of 'Luck' which got stalled because of a railway strike in Nambia. "I'll have to put on weight. I'll have to hit the gym very hard. I stopped going to the gym and cut down on my food intake drastically for 'Delhi Belly'." Imran finds going to the gym very boring. "I'd rather exercise by living healthy and doing outdoor sports. I like offbeat extreme sports like scuba diving and roller skates. I wouldn't say I hate the gym. That's too extreme. But I find it boring. "What I like about stardom is the great service I get at restaurants. I don't need table reservations." It's been a decisive year for Imran. "And now for 'Delhi Belly' I've been working like a dog. It was quite an unsettling experience. On an average I had 15 new experiences every day. I can't complain about it. But it became too much to handle."
