No one quite qualifies for the ticket of a ‘trendsetter’ in Bollywood like Aamir Khan does. That the actor is a stickler for perfection is no secret. Aamir is possibly the only actor who’s been constantly experimenting with his coif. The man has taken on a baffling variety of roles in the past few years, and with each of his on screen characters, Aamir has given Indian hairstylists lots to smile about. All of Aamir’s hairstyles have been religiously copied by his fans right from his Dil Chahta Hai days.
While we were still adjusting to every young Tom, Dick and Harry sporting a goatee, the Lagaan look with the short crop and earrings took over. Then came the flowing Mangal Pandey tresses and curved moustache, followed by a range of new hairstyles from Fanaa, Rang De Basanti and Taare Zameen Par. The latest and most effective of the lot is the Ghajini buzz cut, with criss-crossing lines that give the star an overall psychologically disturbed look. Nonetheless, if Aamir’s doing it, so are a bunch of metropolitan youngsters across the country. Watch the video and find out what it is about brand Aamir that wins the youth over.
