Cool SRK flaunts grey!

In a world that is youth-ist; and defined by vanity and a constant aim towards perfection, it was refreshing to spot a fresh-out-of-the-bed Shah Rukh Khan as he walked to a polling booth near Mount Mary, in Bandra, yesterday to cast his vote.

We took note of SRK’s grey stubble — not clipped, not by design; a first for any Bollywood superstar.

Amitabh Bachchan wears the well constructed odd contrast of grey and dark elegantly, while Akshay Kumar sported a carefully-styled dash of grey on his fuzz in the reality show Khatron ke Khiladi.

The normally stylish badshah who goes to great lengths to get his togs and look in place before any public
appearance, (even at friends Karan Johar and Farah Khan’s talk shows), seemed to be comfortable in his own skin. We fully approve and hope that other 40-plus Bollywood stars would lighten up and emulate SRK’s coolth.
