June 18, 2025: In the age of social media scrutiny, celebrities are constantly judged for their looks — especially their hair. From speculation around hair patches to debates over wigs, online users often assume the worst. But now, celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim has finally set the record straight.
In a candid interview with Hindi Rush, Aalim Hakim addressed the persistent rumours surrounding Bollywood’s heartthrob Hrithik Roshan and comedy superstar Kapil Sharma. The stylist, who has worked closely with both, firmly dismissed the claims that the two stars use wigs or hair patches.

When asked directly, Aalim responded, “No, it’s all real. Sabke asli baal hain boss. I cut their hair myself. Fake hair doesn’t behave the same way on camera.” Referring to Hrithik’s iconic chopper entry scene in War (2019), Aalim praised the actor’s natural hair, saying, “Not only is it real, but it’s also of amazing quality.”
Interestingly, Aalim also took the moment to reveal that his own hair is not real. “To be honest, my hair is fake. I don’t hide it. But people often confuse my wig with the actors’ real hair and message me saying, ‘That actor’s wig is so good.’ I have to tell them they’re mistaken.”
Despite his clarification, Aalim knows the gossip may continue. “People will always talk — kuchh toh log kahenge,” he concluded with a smile.
