Ram Charan seems to be in no hurry to visit the barber. The actor was recently spotted with long hair tied back in a ponytail. This hints that he is letting it grow while director Sukumar Bandreddi decides on his final look for RC17. The relaxed styling suggests that the RRR actor is keeping his options open. Until the look is locked, the mane stays. The project is just a few days away from its launch. Following the massive box-office success of Peddi, Ram Charan is raring to commence shooting for the film.
A History of Makeovers
Hair has often been central to Ram Charan’s transformations. In Magadheera, he transitioned from a modern-day biker to a rugged warrior in a period setting. Dhruva called for the opposite. He sported a sleek, sharp look as a police officer, with a trim haircut and a leaner frame. Rangasthalam, his earlier film with Sukumar, gave him an unpolished look. Peddi pushed things further with unkempt hair, a thick beard and a nose ring.
Collaborating closely with celebrity stylists such as Aalim Hakim, Ram Charan has had his hairstyles mapped out to reflect the era and geography of his films. Rather than opting for a standard, sleek aesthetic in every movie, his transformations are largely dictated by the specific background of each character. The shoulder-length hair and heavy beard he sported in some of his films show that he doesn’t mind experimenting with different looks.
