He also sports an extended goatee and poses while looking into the camera.
His daughter, actor Shruti seemed impressed with the new look. Re-sharing it on X, she wrote, “Appa dearest (pink heart and evil eye emojis) looking (sunglasses emoji).”
Fans also seemed equally impressed, with one of them commenting, “Aandavar new look!” Another wrote, “what a look!” Many however wondered which film Kamal was shooting for. One fan commented, “this look for which film?” Another wrote, “Something big is coming up.”
