Not one or two, Shahid Kapoor tried five different looks before finalising one for Vishal Bhardwaj's Rangoon!

Shahid Kapoor underwent multiple look changes for his upcoming film, Rangoon. It took Shahid a lot of time before arriving at the final look that he will be seen sporting in the period saga. Shahid Kapoor changed at least 5 looks before the one he is currently sporting for the film.  All this for just one man – his director Vishal Bhardwaj

His director, Vishal Bhardwaj wanted to see Shahid in a couple of looks before taking the final call. So, after his last release, Shahid immediately started changing his looks like a chameleon. One after the other. Be it a look with long hair and beard, then adding a moustache to the look, short hair with beard and moustache to ultimately landing on the short hair, no beard and a moustache look, Shahid very patiently sported all these looks.

Shahid Kapoor invested a lot of time and effort into this process before starting shoot as it was an integral aspect for the film. Vishal who's known to present Shahid very differently in all his films wanted to get the correct look that will suit his character in the film. 

Personally, Shahid Kapoor withdraws from everything when he is on the job. The actor puts in a lot while shooting and omits himself from everything else. The actor has also been a trend setter when it comes to looks. We have seen Shahid don different looks in his previous films like Haider and Shaandaar as well which became major talking points and popular trends. His current look for Rangoon too has received immense appreciation from the people at large. But what went behind getting the look is now out for everyone to read!
