As per DesiMartini report, He told Galatta Plus, “I can’t imagine the character without a beard. Plus, I personally love beard so that is also one reason. You get into one mode where you say this is the character and these are the changes and if it is not required, forcefully you shouldn’t do. So, he [Prasanth Neel] wanted me to present and do this thing, if it was one film like we had planned, probably I would have done it. But when it went into two parts, the whole first chapter they have enjoyed him as a bearded guy and then all of a sudden in the second half you take it off, they will definitely miss that character so I insisted.” Also Read: 7 JAW-DROPPING Kajal Looks By Bollywood Divas To Suit Every Occasion
Yash obviously didn’t dismiss the idea of his director immediately but he did put his best foot forward to convince him. Recalling going for shoot on the day he was supposed to trim his beard, Yash added, “In fact, I went that day we were supposed to trim by beard and just before that I said, ‘I think something tells me let’s not do it. Let’s have him the way he is.’ Because he has to wear suits and all and I said, he’s not trying to look smart, let him wear the best outfits in the world but he should like a Rocky who doesn’t care. Of course, it is the character that he has etched but as an actor I convinced him. I said one day we will shoot, if you’re not happy then we will remove it. Then that’s it he said ‘You are looking great with the beard’, the suit part he was a little concerned with.” Also Read: Follow Ram Charan’s Fitness Routine To Get Fit Like An RRR Actor
