If
ever there is a perfectionist in his craft
in the present set up in Kollywood, the
trophy should go to none other than Kamal
Hassan. The man constantly springs a surprise
about his efforts in preparing for his film
projects. Every film of his carries something
novel, something special. It is difficult
to miss out on the innovations he attempts
in each venture. |

Kamal in US
Take his forthcoming film, Dasavatharam.
He had started preparing for this
film even while working on VV. It
is an ambitious role for Kamal because
he plays ten different persons. He
knows pretty well that he cannot hark
back to the old methods of merely
changing hair styles or body language.
So, he flew in to the USA looking
for special techniques in make up.
A leading make up artist (yes, that’s
what they are called there!) Westmore
worked with Kamal for nearly three
weeks and came up with eight different
styles. |

Ravikumar overawed by Kamal’s
commitment
Director of the film and a close friend
of Kamal, K.S. Ravikumar said, ”I
am sure Dasavatharam will mark a major milestone
in Kamal’s cinematic journey. It has
a novel story and the treatment is modern.
I am just overawed by Kamal’s commitment
in making this film an enjoyable treat for
the viewers. I was with him during the make
up trials and he would spend hours discussing
with Westmore before being convinced. He
also tried on the make up patiently and
let me tell you it is so different that
if Kamal were to walk the streets of Chennai
in any one of them, no one would be able
to recognize him. |

In
case he asked for directions in any locality
in Chennai one might unwittingly entertain
him. Eight styles are ready and two more
to go. As the make up test is over, shooting
would commence soon.”
Oscar Films Ravichandran is the producer.
So, guys, get ready for a rollicking outing
with ten different Kamals. |

A sneak peak of Kamal’s
hairstyle in Dasavatharam
Meanwhile folks got a sneaky peek
of one of the hairstyles that Kamal
would sport in the film when they
attended veteran comedian Goundamani’s
daughter’s wedding reception
in Chennai. Many thought that Kamal
would not make an appearance. But
he did out of the affection he had
for the senior actor. Kamal looked
every inch a dapper in a pair of jeans
and T-shirt and his hair was close
cut with a crossways parting. |
