Padmavati: Ranveer Singh Shaves Off His Beard To Become Young Alauddin Khilji; See VIDEO!

Ranveer's 'Beardy' Tales

To become the one of his kind super villain Alauddin Khilji in the much-talked about film Padmavati, the actor 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. His bearded look went on to set fashion trends.

His Transformation Into Young Alauddin Khilji

Now, sources from the sets of Padmavati 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."

Bidding Bye-Bye To His Bearded Look

Ranveer confirmed this development and even shared a picture on Twitter showcasing his 'before' and 'after' mundan look.

Shahid Kapoor's Strict Diet Plan

On the other hand, Ranveer's co-star Shahid Kapoor who plays Raja Ratan Rawal too is working hard to prep up for this film. Reportedly, he has collaborated with Mumbai-based Canadian Chef Kelvin Cheung. The actor who is vegetarian is adhering to a strict diet plan to get the beefed-up look for the movie.
