It's Movember & Vijayendra Kumeria Has Gone Clean Shaven (Well, After Four Years)

Actor Vijayendra Kumeria, who is currently doing Sufiyana Pyar Mera, is donning a new look. Recently he shaved off his beard and after posting his new clean shaven look on social media, he started getting a lot of positive feedback. He says, "I shaved for the last scene of Sufiyana Pyaar Mera. There is a scene where I had to look different and younger so on request of the creative team I agreed to get rid of the beard. I could have put my foot down, but then I thought it was important for me to do what the scene demanded. So what if it was only for the last scene.” 

Vijayendra adds,”I personally like to grow a beard. I believe it suits me and gives me a macho look. I have always preferred it over the clean shaven boyish look. I had a beard for 4 years in fact I have tried different beard looks in Udaan from light to dense. 

When I came out of my make up room after the shave some people didn’t recognize me as I looked very different without the beard. Almost everybody said I am looking much younger and I was called cute by a lot of co actors. I am not used to being called cute but I am getting used to it .My wife doesn’t like me clean shaven so she got a shock and is waiting for my beard to grow back. My daughter Kimaya had a laugh seeing me like this. I am missing my facial hair but I don't mind since as an actor one should experiment with their looks. You never know if my next role demands a clean shaven look as well."
