Akshay Kumar is a clothes horse. Thanks to his good looks and height the actor is usually nattily dressed on and off screen. So actually it comes as no surprise that in The Shaukeens, Akshay decided to create his own style statement by picking up his wardrobe himself.

The Bollywood superstar who is playing himself, but with a slight twist to his character, wanted to dress the way he does in real life and he decided to style his own wardrobe. Director Abhishek Sharma points out, “Because he is playing himself, he wanted to be comfortable in whatever he wore. And I thought it was a great idea, mainly because he is anyway so well-dressed and dapper in real life too. So I knew there was no way we could go wrong.“

In fact, some of his outfits in the film have been picked out from his personal wardrobe. For all the other stuff, he personally picked up international designer wear on his trips to Dubai and London.
