Shakib Khan’s look inspired by South Indian heroes is turning heads on the internet

After almost two months of hiding from the public eye, Shakib Khan is back in Dhaka sporting a bold new look that could easily be interpreted as synonymous with a South Indian film hero.

With a grown-up beard, casual hat, and large sunglasses covering most of his features, he was hard to recognize at a glance. However, after a second look, it became clear that it was none other than Dhallywood superstar Shakib Khan.

Since the release of his film ‘Toofan’ last Eid-ul-Azha, the actor has been hiding from the public eye. The film aroused great interest both at home and abroad, becoming an industry hit within a month of its release.

While ‘Toofan’ fever gripped audiences across the globe, Shakib was busy with personal matters in Dubai and the US.

According to reports, Shakib Khan returned to Dhaka last Thursday morning after spending almost two months in the United States. He was greeted at the airport by actor Alexander Bo, who got his first glimpse of Shakib’s fresh look in a selfie that quickly went viral on social media.

Insiders suggest that Shakib’s new style suits his upcoming film ‘Borbaad’. The shooting of the film, directed by Mehedi Hasan Hridoy, will begin in early October and Idhika Paul will play the female lead.
