If his movies are any indication, Sanjay Gupta pays as much attention to the styling as he does to the script. The filmmaker, who is currently giving finishing touches to Mumbai Saga, says that he spent weeks zeroing in on leading man John Abraham's gangster look. "The idea was to show John in a different light. The film is set in the '80s, and we have stayed true to the era. John's character ages from mid-20s to the late-30s," says the director, who has given Abraham four distinct looks in the movie that also features Emraan Hashmi, and traces the shutdown of mills in Bombay in the '80s.

Sharing an exclusive still with mid-day, Gupta elaborates, "This is one of the looks where he is seen wearing a polyester kurta with wide lapels and chappals, and is sporting a teeka on the forehead. I remember, when John entered the set, Bhushan [Kumar, producer] told me that he thought a real gangster had walked in."
