 The
art of makeup and makeovers has never really penetrated the Hindi
film industry. There was Kamal Hassan down south, who realized the
importance of makeup and used techniques from Hollywood in many
of his films. But Bollywood is still quite oblivious to the finer
points of the art.
Bollywood is known to believe that just the addition of a moustache,
or the removal of one, can alter a person's look, which is actually
quite a primitive thought in the evolution of makeup. The recent
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi also played with the same thought and the two
identities of Shah Rukh Khan were just differentiated by the addition
and subtraction of a moustache. It seems that ad filmmaker and director
of Cheeni Kum, Balki, is more than keen to give the art of makeup
its due respect. According to reports, for his next film, Pa, starring
Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Vidya Balan, he has managed
to enroll the services of a renowned Hollywood makeup artiste called
Stephen Dupuis, the man responsible for transforming actor Robin
Williams in the film Mrs Doubtfire. Balki is wanting to change the
Big B's entire look for his film and that is where the makeup expert
comes in. The Big B too has gracefully decided to surrender himself
to the expert. The film, Pa, will be shot in Delhi and Gwalior and
focuses on the father son relationship.
