MUMBAI: Shahid Kapoor’s latest blockbuster Kabir Singh seems to show no signs of moving out of the limelight. Fans from across India fell for the character that Shahid portrayed – but most of all, they loved his new rugged and scruffy look. Even celebrities like Alia Bhat and Siddharth Malhotra amongst many others had taken to twitter to share their appreciation for the character’s look. With ‘No Shave November’ right around the corner, Kabir Singh’s massively appreciated beard has set beard goals across the nation.
Bearded looks define a character and also create a signature style; from Amitabh’s iconic French beard to Ranveer Singh’s perfectly shaped goatee, Bollywood has set a benchmark for aspirational facial hair looks. Enter Shahid Kapoor with his Kabir Singh look which took months of dedication and grooming from one of Bollywood’s best hairstylists, Aalim Hakim.
Giving Bollywood’s boy-next-door a new look was to define his persona as Kabir Singh. The director, Sandeep Reddy Vanga insisted that Kabir Singh’s beard should be similar to Arjun’s from the Telugu make of the film - Arjun Reddy.
Getting the bearded look right is a tedious task but with the right routine, achieving maximum results just requires sheer dedication and patience; or in the case of Shahid Kapoor – the added element of charisma and a charming smile.
Jokes apart, Shahid has set the temperature high and his transformation should give every beard-aspirer something to look forward to. Get ready to share your own #NoShaveNovember posts with your favorite Kabir Singh quotes and catch the hunk in all his glory as Sony MAX gears up for the World Television Premiere of Kabir Singh on 29th September 2019 at 12PM.
