Mohit Suriand Aalim agreed that long hair would not suit with the character in the film. “He (Aalim) is open to suggestion as he believes in working according to the requirement of film, director and character. Eventually we decided to have short hair,” he added.
In his debut film “Ishqzaade”, Arjun sported a rugged look, for “Gunday” he had a moustache and thin layer of beard and in “2 States” he had worn spectacles. “For an actor to create a different look for every film isnot easy.
