Aamir's done it again: Mr Makeover

Here's a look at some of Aamir's totally unexpected yet memorable styles over the years.

What do Aamir Khan and David Beckham have in common? Both love sporting new looks and hairstyles from time to time. This time around when Aamir went for the almost-bald hairdo, he nearly 'killed' his curious fans with his steamy-hot looks.

Rangeela (1994)
Director: Ram Gopal Verma
Co-stars: Urmila Matondkar, Jackie Shroff
Character: Munna
Look: Munna was his first prominent character in Bollywood. The rough style with unkempt hair and stubble, coupled with a scarf around his neck, gave him the perfect 'tapori black marketeer's' look. The taporis (street goons) soon took to this style.

Ghulam (1998)
Director: Vikram Bhatt
Co-stars: Rani Mukherji, Rajat Kapoor
Character: Siddharth Marathe
Look: As a young boxer, Aamir kept a simple haircut, but went for a cap instead with loads of finger rings, gloves and jackets to complete his look. The accessories gave him a young, trendy and sporty image that took the audience by storm.

Dil Chahta Hai (2001)
Director: Farhan Akhtar
Co-stars: Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna, Preity Zinta
Character: Akash
Look: Farhan's wife, Adhuna Akhtar, designed Aamir's look, which soon became a cult statement. The mid-20 uber-cool-and-rich-dude look with an attitude bowled over the audience. His short-spiked hair style and tiny goatee was all the rage.

Lagaan (2001)
Director: Ashutosh Gowarikar
Co-stars: Gracy Singh
Character: Bhuvan
Look: For the first time, Aamir went for the rural farmer look in Lagaan, with a basic hairstyle. For most of the film, his hair was pushed behind with a cloth tied across his forehead. This style became etched in people's minds as the face of Lagaan.

Mangal Pandey (2005)
Director: Ketan Mehta
Co-stars: Rani Mukherji, Amisha Patel
Look: For the first time Aamir went for the long-haired look. Like Mangal Pandey, Aamir went for a shoulder-length haircut and a handle-bar moustache. The film flopped but he kept the hair style for a long time.

Fanaa (2006)
Director: Kunal Kohli
Co-stars: Kajol
Character: Rehaan Khan
Look: Aamir played a poor Muslim guide who's not necessarily into fashion, so he went for the unkempt look in the first half of the film. But in the second half, when he became a militant, he sported an army haircut in order to look suave.

Rang de Basanti (2006)
Director: Rakeysh Mehra
Co-stars: Kunal Kohli, Siddharth, Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Soha Ali Khan
Character: DJ
Look: Aamir sported the look of a typical Delhi boy whose college years had long since passed. The ruffled, longish hair, paired with T-shirts, jackets and gloves, made him look fantastically real.

Taare Zameen Par (2007)
Director: Aamir Khan
vCo-stars: Darsheel Safary and Tisca Choprav
Character:
Ram Shankar Nikhumb
Look: Aamir played the role of a cool teacher. So he had the centre of his hair spiked all the way to the back. He even gave this hairstyle to the children in the film, and most of them soon caught on to this look.

Ghajini
Director: A.R. Murgadoss
Co-stars: Asin and Jiah Khan
Look: While the whole world speculated about Aamir's new bald look, which he was to get on his birthday, Aamir turned up at the premier of Race with a crew cut with several lines shaved in between his hairline. These might be scars in the film, which actually make Aamir look real hot!
