Shedding his 'boy next door' skin, Pakistani singer and actor Ali Zafar has a new look for the upcoming Bollywood romantic action film, Kill Dil.

The new film poster shows the handsome Pakistani star resting up against a giant gun in all-black attire and dark glasses. The poster's caption says, #WILLKILLFORDOSTI

Kill Dil, scheduled to release on November 14, 2014, is about "the tricks the heart plays on an unsuspecting victim of love".

It features Ali shedding his soft, sweet romantic avatar to become the latest assassin on the block. His hair is longer, he sports a French beard and those well-toned six pack abs are certainly going to help in shoving away adversaries in this film.

Produced by Yash Raj Films and directed by Shaad Ali, Kill Dil stars Ranveer Singh and Parineeti Chopra, alongside Ali Zafar. The film will also have Govinda return to the big screen as a villian.

This is the film's third teaser poster, with the previous two featuring Ranveer and the ever seductive Parineeti.

Ali Zafar has previously worked in Bollywood films like Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, London, Paris, New York, Chashme Baddoor and Total Siyapaa. He also recently expressed his wish to make a directorial debut. His music career goes a long way, starting in 2003 with his debut album, Huqa Pani.

He was also recently spotted in Singapore, while on tour for his live music performance:
