Revealing about Ranveer's look and style in the film, celebrity hair designer Darshan Yewalekar says, "My first brief from director Divyang Thakkar in the YRF studio was a detailed description of what Jayeshbhai stood for, who he was as a person and how in this seemingly ordinary man, was hidden an extraordinary warrior.”
He further stated, “It was one of the longest narrations I have ever heard about a pure character who belonged to rural India, is bound by social norms but also has the guts to question and challenge them. This was a different kind of a 'Mard' with sensitivity and empathy for others. The challenge hence was to make Ranveer Singh look like a common-man with uncommon integrity."

Darshan further says that he was motivated and revealed that, "Divyang’s eyes would light up when he talked about the film. I was mesmerized and wanted to do justice to his vision by creating something cool for this character who despite being timid and homely, had a spark. I came up with a look that included a moustache with a little bit of Chaplin in it. A very small, faded moustache, just falling short of the mouth to indicate meekness. "

With the hair, we had to maintain the long length as this film was to be shot between two other films. I couldn’t play around much with Ranveer's hair but created a look that was borderline caricaturish and gave the vibe of a timid guy who would go with the flow. Divyang already had a lookbook and I was thrilled when my interpretation matched his vision exactly. That’s the best unspoken compliment that you can ever get in your life" concluded Darshan.
Talking about the film, Ranveer Singh will be essaying the role of a Gujarati boy, who is the son of Village's sarpanch played by Boman Irani. The story revolves how Jayeshbhai escapes with his pregnant wife and daughter in order to safeguard his unborn child. Written and directed by Divyang Thakkar, the film is set to hit theaters on May 13.
