Known as Khiladi Kumar throughout his career, Akshay has a side to him that is equally revered and followed by his fans, i.e. his style statement.
Initially known only for his martial arts skills and his controversial relationships, Akshay Kumar has slowly started to make his presence felt in the batch of the most stylish actors of the country.
Presenting the 'Desi Boy' Akshay Kumar's style story.
Style Evolution
Akshay Kumar wasn't really considered fashion forward and was happy keeping the tag of the numero uno action star. The most noticeable change in his avatar ws in the film 'Tashan' where Akshay totally went beyond himself and experimented with his looks. His makeover was well received by his fans and thus began Akki's 'real' tryst with style.
Wardrobe Basics
Being the 'man' in today's metrosexual world, Akki relies heavily on denims and cropped tees. Sunglasses are his best friend and no one plays with the scark as much as he does. Also, in Akki's words, 'When in doubt, wear blue jeans and a white shirt'.
Top Fashion Moment
When Akshay Kumar was signed on as the brand ambassador of Levi's jeans, things definitely changed for the better. The sight of him on the ramp, literally set hearts on fire and with Twinkle unbuttoning him in public he courted a huge controversy. Irrespective of the number of pricks he annoyed, it is a moment which his fans and fashion lovers won't forget too soon.
Trademark Style
Akshay's trademark style is rugged and nonchalant. He has been and will always be the ultimate action star of the country and his personal style, hence, reflects that part of him.
Best Feature
If we had to pick one feature as Akki's absolute high point, it would be his amazing fitness. Akshay has never been out of shape and that is purely because of his devotion to keeping himself fit. After all, there's nothing hotter than a man who sports the perfect bod and religiously follows a regime.
Hair Story
Akshay's hairstyle in the 90s was as static as his style. The longish mane stayed right on place until the above-mentioned film, 'Tashan' came along. In the movie he not only sported a crew cut but also dyed his hair rusty brown. He has stuck to cropped hair ever since and we're not complaining since he totally rocks the look.
Style Mentor
Not a mentor, but definitely a major influence on Akki's fashion statement is his wife, Twinkle Khanna. She is known for her sartorial sense of style in B-town and she has rubbed her amazing fashion skills on her husband too. If we compare Akki's fashion sense before and after marriage, we can easily spot the major change that Twinkle's presence has brought in his life and style.
