Emraan Hashmi elated with Shanghai look

Mumbai -- Bollywood serial kisser Emraan Hashmi, who was bored of his looks in the films and desired a makeover, is very satisfied and happy with his appearance in Dibakar Banerjees forthcoming film Shanghai. In the film, Emraan plays a small-town street smart guy who sports a paunch, buck tooth and a dark complexion. "There were lots of test looks for this character. We wanted a transformation in terms of looks. There was a long trial and error process. But eventually one look emerged and for that I had to gain 9 to 10 kg weight, had to go few darker shades," Emraan said. Addressing the reporters at the music launch of the film here, he said, "You haven't seen this kind of teeth in my any other film. This is a complete makeover. And I would want to do it...I don't know how many actors would like to look this on screen, but I found this opportunity appealing". The film, starring Abhay Deol and Kalki Koechlin besides Emraan, is set to release on June 8.
