Aamir Khan to go bald!

Leading men in Hollywood never think twice before going bald for a role, but in Bollywood, bald pates are usually restricted to the bad guys.

Remember Kulbhushan Kharbanda as Shakaal in Shaan? The late Amrish Puri too donned a distinct bald crust in several films where he played the baddie. And, of course, the famous Shetty, who designed stunts in the '70s and also played henchman to the villains.

But not anymore! Bollywood's leading men have decided not to feel any shame in going plain!

Now Aamir Khan too will flaunt a 'khula aasman' for the Hindi remake of the Tamil hit, Ghajini. A source close to Aamir says, "Aamir will go bald in a month. The script of Ghajini remake demands that he sport a bald head."

However, Aamir will not have a bald look throughout the film. Only the second half of the film demands that he have no hair. "He still hasn't decided who will do the 'honours' and shave off his hair, but Aamir is most comfortable with Avaan Contractor. She styled his trend-setting look in Dil Chahta Hai ," the source adds.

The source reveals that Aamir does not have any apprehensions about the new look. "He was given the option of wearing a wig, but turned it down. Aamir likes doing his roles in a realistic way and didn't want this film to be an exception. He took three years to get his look right for Mangal Pandey!"
