Mumbai, Mar 5 (IBNS): Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan said he is working to grow chest hairs to "play the role of Wolverine on screen" while replying to a tweet of one his fans amid the buzz that the Indian actor is suited for the role after Hollywood's Hugh Jackman retires.

"Hair on the chest lady…need hair on the chest!! Working on it though. Love Hugh & Wolverine.," Shah Rukh Khan said in a reply on Twitter.

Recently during an interaction with a television journalist, Hugh Jackman said that Shah Rukh might fit in for the role of Wolverine.

Hugh said: "I think I'll be fine with it. I hope other people play it. May be Shah Rukh Khan could play it."

"The comic book series is so good because you have so many people interpreting this role. I think there are six origin stories. I will be really interested to see how I feel about it. I want it to be really great. But I don't want it to be that much better than me. Just a little bit is fine," he added.

Hugh Jackman has been playing the role of Wolverine on screen for last 17 years and he has announced that he would be seen to play this character for the last time in Logan.

The film has hit the screen on March 3 in United States.
