Akshay Kumar’s pictures in his villainous avatar in Rajinikanth's film 2.0 are bound to shock his fans. Akshay sports long eye bushes, grey hair and wears a feathered leather jacket.
Earlier Rishi Kapoor's new octogenarian look from 'Kapoor and Sons' had everyone staring at the picture. The actor looked completely unrecognisable in his new look and credit has to be given to the make-up artists who worked on the actor's face to give him the bald, old look. Other actors who were unrecognisable in their roles because of their make up were Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2 and Shah Rukh Khan's Fan avatar in his upcoming movie is something that we have never witnessed before.

SRK in Fan: SRK will be seen playing the role of a die-hard fan Gaurav who idolises his screen idol, Aryan Khanna. SRK's make-up in the movie gives him the look and feel of a very young guy right from the way his hair is parted to the skin tone of his face. The star even underwent a digital 3D face scanning to get the right look for the movie.
Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2; This movie had Hrithik wearing many garbs. A London-based company called Hybrid was called in to dress Hrithik's looks and each disguise took 5-6 hours. The look which took the cake was the one where he dressed up like Her Majesty to steal the crown.
Vikram in I: For Shankar's I, Tamil actor Vikram had to put on garish make-up to look like the crooked, pimple infected balding monster. Make-up of Vikram was done by New Zealand-based Weta Digital.
Amitabh Bachchan in Paa; Amitabh had to undergo complete facial transformation to play the progeria afflicted Auro. International make-up artist Stephen Dupuis made Big B wear over eight pieces of specially crafted clay to look like Auro.
Riteish Deshmukh in Humshakals: One of the last films in which Riteish cross dressed as a female was Humshakals. The actor look extremely convincing in his part and to his credit looked much more beautiful than some of the actresses in the film.
Kamal Hassan in Chachi 420, Dashavatar, Indian: He could be called the master of disguise. Kamal Hassan convincingly played an ageing granny in Chachi 420 while in Dashavatar he played 10 different roles including former US President George Bush. The actor went unrecognised in every role that he portrayed due to the brilliant prosthetic make-up. Similarly in the film Indian, he remained almost unrecognised in the role of an old man.
