Akshay Oberoi, who will be seen next in Fitoor has taken inspiration from none other than Amitabh Bachchan for his look in the film. Reason: He plays the love interest of young Rekha played by Aditi Rao Hydari.
Since the story is set in the '70s in Kashmir, the brief given to him by director Abhishek Kapoor was to create Bachchan's look from Silsila and Kabhi Kabhi, which incidentally were also shot in the valley. Since Akshay is also tall, the director thought he would be able to carry off Bachchan's famous '70s look.
Says a source, "Akshay will be seen sporting bell bottoms, sweater vests etc. To get his look right, he saw Silsila and Kabhi Kabhi before he started shooting."
