But debutant director Shirish Kunder seemed sure of the way he wanted Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan to look in his film, Jaan-E-Mann, and asked fashion designer Surily Goel to go about the task. As the young designer says, it wasn't an easy one. "We spent an entire day planning Salman's look as a woman. He tried on lots of wigs, makeup, padding... He also had to practice walking on heels, which is not easy for a guy."

This is just one of the looks Salman sports in the film though. He also plays a rock star. "He has long hair, torn jeans and earrings. It's a look inspired by Guns 'n' Roses and Bon Jovi," Surily explains.
