To get into the skin of a character, actors need to do a lot of things. It’s not just the acting, but even the look of the actor matters a lot to enhance the performance.

Well, Bollywood filmmakers have been experimenting a lot when it comes to the look of actors in their movies. Sometimes they succeed and sometimes they don’t.

Paa – Amitabh Bachchan

In the 2009 release Paa, a 66-year-old Amitabh Bachchan played the role of a 12-year-old boy who has a rare genetic disorder called progeria. Well, Paa was a wonderful film, but one thing that grabbed everyone’s attention in the film was Big B’s makeup.
