'Argo' director Ben Affleck celebrated his Best Picture win at the Oscars by shaving off his grizzly beard that he sported during the entire award season for "good luck charm".

The 40-year-old shaved off his beard at a private post-Oscars party in Hollywood, with co-producer and friend George Clooney egging him on and wife Jennifer Garner leading the effort, Us Weekly reported.

The "good luck charm" clearly worked for Affleck as the actor went on to collect Screen Actors Guild trophy, a Golden Globe and BAFTA award this season.
