As we all know Vikram has been sporting a thick beard and mustache for the post few months. This is for his getup in the upcoming stylish action entertainer 'Iru Mugan' directed by Anand Shankar which has been progressing rapidly.

While the new schedule of the shooting is all set to begin in Kashmir from today, the latest stills of Vikram show him as a smart clean shaven look. This may be for the second character in the film as 'Iru Mugan' is touted to be the first dual role flick of Vikram.

A few weeks ago, director Anand Shankar has announced in Twitter page that 'Oru Mugan' of 'Iru Mugan' has been completed, which means the portions of one of the characters played by Vikram has been entirely completed. The shooting of portions for the second character only remains for the film and that will be shot in the remaining shooting days.

Vikram's clean shaven look also adds credence to the speculation that the National award winning actor plays a transgender in the film. However, we will have to wait for official updates.

'Iru Mugan' stars Vikram, Nayanthara and Nithya Menen in lead roles. Harris Jayaraj is scoring the music while R.D.Rajashekher handles the camera.

The film is being produced on a grand scale by Shibu Thameens.
