Actor
Gaurav Chatterjee
, who loves a clean-shaven look and thinks that it suits him the best, shares with
ETimes
why he sported a bearded look during the
lockdown.
“My
beard is entirely an occupational hazard. I have had to grow it out for a feature film I am working on presently and thus the process started during the lockdown. I am not a big fan of growing a beard. First, our weather is not suited for a heavy beard. Second, my beard tends to be very uncomfortable, so, I prefer to be clean-shaven,” he says.
Sharing tips with us on how he maintains his beard, Gaurav added, “A beard or a stubble requires a lot of
upkeep. My beard is thick and
unruly. I use
beard oil to keep it manageable and soft. Also, regular trimming is a must if you are planning to grow your beard, otherwise, one starts looking like a caveman very soon,” added Gaurav.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Gaurav who has fully recovered from COVID-19 recently shot for Anshuman Paratyush’s next film ‘
Nirbhaya
’ with
