This is how his(Akbar's) son describes him:-

He was of middle height, of a wheat-coloured complexion, with black eyes and eyebrows. His beauty was of form rather than face, with abroad chest and long arms. On his left nostril was a fleshy mole, very becoming, of the size of a split pea, which physiognomists understood to be an augury of great wealth and glory. His voice was extremely loud, and in discourse and narration he was witty and animated. His whole air and appearance had little of the wordly being but exhibited rather divine majesty.

I guess that got quoted from Jahangirnama
Exact description like the look which Prithviraj Kapoor donned in Mughal-e-Azam. A great portrayal indeed.
But glad they skipped the mole thing for Rajat, would have looked unintentionally funny 😆
