London, Aug 31 : Actor Robin Williams has shaved his body hair for a particular scene in his new film ‘The World’s Greatest Dad’.

The comedian suffered embarrassment in 1991, when he was compared to a Yeti after stripping in the movie ‘The Fisher King’.

However, the ‘Flubber’ star is candid about his new role, which demanded him to briefly bare all to jump into a swimming pool.

“I shaved because if you don’t, it’s like animal rights issues,” the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

Recollecting his earlier film he added: “I did a nude scene in The Fisher King; it was Central Park, I was a homeless guy, so I was covered in dirt and really hairy and it was like, ‘Is that Bigfoot?’” (ANI)
