Mumbai:
Arjun
Rampal,
who
plays
the
character
of
Rudra
Pratap
Singh,
an
ex-officer
of
the
Indian
Armed
Forces
MARCOS
unit
and
RAW
agent
in
Nikhil
Advani's
upcoming
movie
D-Day,
went
through
a
thorough
makeover
for
this
movie.
The
actor
who's
seen
donning
stylish
suits,
jackets,
jeans
and
even
crisp
Kurtas
in
his
previous
movies,
is
seen
wearing
a
lungi
with
a
vest
in
D-Day.
Dressed
in
a
blue
lungi
and
white
vest
with
a
white
knitted
skull
cap
Arjun
looks
like
the
simple
everyday
Pakistani
man,
a
far
cry
from
his
previous
glamorous
avatars.
Arjun
was
also
heavily
involved
in
the
look
of
his
character.
So
much
so,
he
decided
to
change
his
look
in
the
middle
of
the
shoot
to
match
the
transition
his
character
goes
through.
Nikhil
Advani,
who
completely
supported
his
idea
knowing
it
would
benefit
the
film,
was
impressed
with
the
actor's
involvement
with
the
film.
Speaking
of
Arjun
Rampal's
look
in
the
movie,
Nikhil
Advani
said,
"Arjun
is
extremely
excited
about
his
character
in
the
movie.
This
is
the
first
undercover
spy
character
he
is
playing
and
he
wanted
his
character
to
look
as
authentic
as
possible.
In
fact,
the
lungi
too
was
an
addition
made
my
Arjun
himself!
I
believe
Arjun
has
far
exceeded
the
expectations
created
post
Rock
On
and
Rajneeti."
