Raabta didn't hit off the screen well but Rajkumar's transformation gained an immense amount of attention. The LA-based makeup team worked well with sheer precision and made him completely unrecognizable.
This late veteran actor played the role of a 90-year-old grandfather in the film. The makeup artist Greg Cannom's aim was to make Rishi look completely old naturally.
Being the most recent transformation, Lara Dutta registered herself in the list by donning the role of former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in Akshay Kumar starrer Bell Bottom. The look created a massive buzz at the time of the movie's trailer launch.
This global icon has played countless glamorous roles in her Bollywood career but the role of Jhilmil, an autistic girl in Barfi, remains one of her most admired and challenging roles of all time.
