Shatrugan Sinha shaves it off!

When we think of popular Bollywood superstar of yesteryears - Shatrughan Sinha - can we ever imagine him without his trademark Shotgun mouche?

Unfortunately the mouche is no more as Sinha agreed to shave it of for the first time in his career of 40 years as an actor! It wasn't, nonetheless, the easiest task for Ram Gopal Verma to persuade him that the look was exactly what Sinha needed for his role as NT Rama Rao in RGV's upcoming movie Rakta Charitra.

It took weeks of persuasion andhours of persuasion for Mrs. Sinha to give in; though the final decision was taken by daughter Sonakshi who's approval on Saturday was all Ramu needed to move in with the razor.

Ironically, usually clean-shaven Vivek Oberoi will be supporting a moustache for the movie and is reportedly getting on very well with Shatrughan Sinha as both have had the chance to bond whilst shooting in Hyderabad.
