Ranveer shaves off beard, becomes young Khilji
To become the one of his kind super villain Alauddin Khilji in Padmavati, Ranveer grew a thick beard, which he has sported at recent public appearances too.
He also underwent rigorous physical training to bulk up and look like a menacing, ruthless warrior and conqueror, every bit the committed actor.
Ranveer's bearded look also set fashion trends.
Now, sources from the film’s set tell us that he has gone for a change in his look. “Ranveer has shaven off his beard to become the younger Alauddin Khilji. The young Khilji has a different look and needs to come across as visually separate from the older Alauddin Khilji. Shaving off his beard to a heavy stubble therefore, was crucial. Ranveer looks younger and somewhat, gentler with the heavy stubble.”
Alauddin Khilji is a downright negative part from the pages of history, and Ranveer is pushing boundaries at all levels to play him.
