‘Bala’: Here’s why Ayushmann Khurrana did not shave his head for playing a balding man

Ayushmann Khurrana is one of the most dedicated actors in Bollywood. He has performed some really true to life characters with complete authenticity. Reportedly the actor was willing to shave his head off for his character in his next ‘Bala’, but was stopped by the director.

According to a report by Mumbai Mirror, director of ‘Bala’, Amar Kaushik did not let Ayushmann shave his head for a very different reason.

Apparently, according to Amar Ayushmann had very good hair and even if he would shave them, ‘Bala’s character would not look real. Kaushik said, “Ayushmann has very good hair genetically; they are thick and voluminous. A person who starts losing hair has a certain pattern to it. The hair first starts thinning and then slowly decreasing. So even if Ayushmann would have shaved his head, we wouldnt have got the exact desired look as we had to show the process of gradual balding. Hence, we had to go ahead with prosthetics. But I really do respect his dedication for his craft.”
