Anil Kapoor is set to appear in a completely new and shocking look in Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film 'King', for the first time in his career. Fans' excitement has grown regarding Anil Kapoor's character and look in director Siddharth Anand's film.

Anil Kapoor has delivered countless hit films in his career, but has maintained a similar look and hairstyle in most of them. Many of his co-actors have also stated that Anil Kapoor is particularly attached to his hair and look. However, for Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film 'King', Anil Kapoor is about to do something he has never done before.

Anil Kapoor to have a New Look in ‘King’

Anil Kapoor, who has been seen in the same look for decades, has made this his signature style. But now, director Siddharth Anand wants to present him in a completely new avatar in the film ‘King’. For this reason, Anil Kapoor is being given a new look in this film, which might surprise the audience. According to reports from ‘Box Office Worldwide’, Anil Kapoor will be seen in a completely bald look for ‘King’. This is considered to be the biggest and most shocking look of his career so far, as he has never adopted such a look throughout his film journey.

Although the makers have not yet shared any official information about Anil Kapoor's character, according to reports, he might be seen in the role of Shah Rukh Khan's mentor in the film. It is due to the demand of this character that Anil Kapoor has had to adopt a bald look.

Has Experimented with Looks Before

Later, he was also seen in a clean-shaven look in films like ‘Jhooth Bole Kauwa Kaate’ and ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’, but he never adopted a completely bald look.
