From Nakuul Mehta To Vijay Varma, These Actors Challenge Toxic Masculinity With Style!

For the longest time, the style has been divided by gender but things have been changing over the past few years. Gone are the days when men only wore pants and women only wore skirts. We’re in the era of genderless fashion, style and beauty. While actresses show up in suits, actors show up in skirts and flaunt nail paint these days. Recently, Bade Achhe Lagte Hain star Nakuul Mehta shared a picture of his gender-fluid mehendi and we decided to take a look back at all the times actors challenged toxic masculinity with style!

Ranveer Singh

TBH, the actor is the one who started the trend of genderless fashion in India. Ranveer Singh’s masculinity isn’t hurt by him wearing pink or wearing a skirt for that matter!

Ayushmann Khurrana

The actor is one the most secure actors and doesn’t shy away from cross-dressing for a film (I mean, he did Dream Girl and has Dream Girl 2 coming up) or wearing a nose ring or just painting his nails!

Jim Sarbh

From wearing pink clothes to floral prints to wearing accessories, we love the Rocket Boys actor for breaking the norms and challenging toxic masculinity with his fashion and beauty game!

Nakuul Mehta

Apart from the gender-fluid mehendi, the Ishqbaaz actor once wore a skirt and grooved alongside content creator and dancer Jainil Mehta who is known for dancing on the streets dressed in a skirt. And oh boy, the two men had more grace than any of us could ever even imagine!

Vijay Varma

The Lust Stories 2 actor, who recently soft-launched Tamannaah Bhatia as his girlfriend on Instagram, loves his gender-fluid fashion and we’ve got proof!

Siddhant Chaturvedi

Gehraiyaan star Siddhant Chaturvedi doesn’t let gendered fashion come in the way of his style and we totally stan it!

Ishaan Khatter

Phone Bhoot actor Ishaan Khatter wears whatever he wants like a boss and that also includes his favourite accessories because why should only girls be allowed to accessorise?

Aamir Khan

Sure, he’s not the most well-dressed star we’ve known but this doesn’t mean that Aamir Khan has broken the norms. Remember when the actor had his nose ring phase? That’s gutsy and we totally love him for slapping toxic masculinity in the face!
