SHAPE SHIFTERS

Looks like 2012 is the year of experimentation. All the major stars of our tinsel town have rolled up their sleeves and are hard at work changing their garbs and looks, as the case may be. Here's what to look forward to.

One of the first movies to be released this year Vettai will have Madhavan in a cop's garb. Really, you ask? We thought so too. To think Maddy as a tough cop despite his adorable smile is kinda tough. But who knows.

Vijay's Thuppaaki will have him sporting a different hairstyle as well as a completely different getup, including a facial makeover.

Maatraan is touted to have Suriya playing conjoined twins, one with two heads - attached to each other.

Ajith's sneak peek into the Billa 2 stills reveal that he has hugely lost weight for the prequel.

Superstar Rajinikanth's Kochadaiyan will have motion capturing technology, something the likes of Avatar used, and that is going to be awesome we think.
