Breaking the stereotype of the tall, dark and brooding hero, Neil Nitin Mukesh has a certain suave charm that will floor you. The fashionable star talks to Huzan Tata about his reel- and real-life style quotient.
BEING SIMPLE, SMART AND STYLISH IS MY MANTRA. Simplicity is most important; if you try too hard then you just get the wrong attention. Taste is inborn; having the knack to match clothes and accessories comes naturally to some. And then there are a few who think that buying everything from one brand and wearing them all together looks nice.
MY WARDROBE ESSENTIALS ARE a good pair of socks, definitely comfortable undergarments and denims, and a great fragrance.
THE ONLY THINGS I REALLY SPLURGE ON ARE ACCESSORIES. I have a great watch collection…every once in a while I like to buy one. I don’t really like spending too much money on clothes because of my profession. I do many outfit changes every day and I have a lot of designer friends who help me style myself.
PALLADIUM IS A GREAT MALL. IT HAS UPSCALED THE ENTIRE LOCALITY. The Collective has a great selection of denims which I really like. Most of my gym wear is from Super dry.
