In the video, Akshaye is seen giving detailed instructions to the team while checking his wig. He focuses on making it look as natural as possible. He says, “This one side?

One user joked, “God knew he would be too powerful with that hairline, so took it!!” Another person shared their opinion on the look, saying, “Would have looked more good with the beard for Rehman. The beard looks quite white.”
There were also light hearted comments comparing the situation to everyday life. One user wrote, “How I explain my haircut to the barber vs after the haircut,” while another appreciated his simple nature and said, “If he had only hair… so much knowledge about styling, yet he’s simple.” Another comment read, “This is what Oscar-level work looks like… peak detailing by Aditya Dhar,” and one more added, “The one who doesn’t have it values it more.”
