Going the retro way, Tollywood's newest pair Shoaib and Kinni turned 'The face' of an 160-year old Swiss watch group here, in a perfect blend of the classic and contemporary in showbiz.

The first Khan in Tollywood, Shoaib told PTI, "Being the youngest pair it is only befitting that we are sporting the watches which retain the 19th century retro-feel."

The 'Knockout' pair sported the brand dating back to 1853 in the movie.

"The look, stylisation and feel of 'Knockout' gels with a centuries-old international brand. Like the music of the film, handled by a veteran composer like Madhu Mukherjee which retains the flavour of the 80s' era dominated by Usha Uthup," Shoaib said.
 

"Our director has sought to classically package a modern-day tale of love-action-comedy-romance and tension as Bengali audiences are more discerning," the blue chip firm professional-turned actor said.

"We decided to go for this pair, the newest ones in Tollywood for our cinegoing customers in this part of world, as their freshness complimented the old legacy of Tissot which had always evolved its designs and make over years," a company spokesman said.
