Shah Rukh Khan saw my look in Bigg Boss 15 and copied it for Pathaan: Abhijit Bichukale

Abhijit Bichukale has claimed that Shah Rukh Khan has copied his look for the upcoming movie, Pathaan. The ex-Bigg Boss contestant feels that Shah Rukh Khan noticed his look on Bigg Boss 15 and copied it. Abhijit was constantly complimented for his silky long hair on Bigg Boss 15.

Abhijit was among one of the wild card contestants on Bigg Boss 15. He had entered the show with Rashami Desai and Devoleena Bhattacharjee.

Bigg Boss 15, hosted by Salman Khan, did not see Shah Rukh Khan enter as a guest. However, Abhijit feels that his hairstyle inspired Shah Rukh Khan, who copied it for Pathaan.

In a media statement, Abhijit said, “People are saying that in Pathaan, Shah Rukh looks like me. This is a positive thing for me.”

Abhijit feels that SRK noticed his stint and especially hairstyle on Bigg Boss 15. However, Abhijit indirectly confessed that his look too is inspired from Sanjay Dutt’s. “After that, I did that style and now Shah Rukh Khan has copied my look.”

The ex-contestant constantly got in a tiff with Salman Khan and the host and the contestant often claimed they can get out or throw them out of the show. Eventually, Abhijit did get out of the show.

Bigg Boss 15 received an extension and the show got popular because of contestants like TejRan, Nishant Bhat, Pratik Sehajpal, Shamita Shetty and Rajiv Adatia. Tejasswi Prakash and Karan Kundrra’s romance was as popular as Nishant-Pratik-Shamita’s friendship. The trio were on Bigg Boss OTT before joining Salman’s show.

From the wild card entrants, while Abhijit and Devoleena got evicted from the show the same day, Rashami Desai stuck till the very end. Her stint was loved this time around. She was the fifth runner-up of the show.

Pathaan features Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in the lead roles apart from SRK. The movie is slated to release in theatres on January 25, 2023.
