The things costume designers have to do to get a characters look, just perfect, can sometimes be terribly time-consuming and quite a challenge. And no one knows this better than young Kunal Rawal who has styled and designed the costumes for Anil Kapoor and John Abraham for Shootout At Wadala.

Apparently, Kunal had to scour almost a hundred stores to find these aviator sunglasses with a golden frame which were quite trendy in the 1980’s – the era which is represented in the film.

Said Kunal in a media statement, “The search wasn’t easy for us. My team visited every nook and corner of the antique stores at Grant Road and Dadar in Mumbai and also Delhi. When they finally chanced upon them, it totally completed John’s 80’s look.”

Some other stars who have worn aviators in films include:
