Stars unplugged without make up

What’s the power of make up? When a middle age actor with a receding hairline slipped into those tight fitting colorful trouser, jacket and fancy shoes, full make up, various imported jet black wigs for hairstyles in Sivaji: The Boss, it transformed a 58 year old aging middle age ordinary man to a superstar and stardom.

He struck at the very heart and pulses of the nation; it marked the arrival of a superstar and a phenomenon called Rajnikanth. It was not only his acting, or gimmicks that was debated, but his transformation and the credit goes to the power of his make up that did wonders to the aging superstar’s look and skin. Through this article we look at some of our most famous stars and see what they really look like off
 
Rajnikanth:

Reel Life::
He may be intertwined with the image of the nation’s biggest superstar alive today, but has anyone ever ponder how the iconic Rajnikanth looks like in real life? By far he is one of the most famous superstars in India, his films and trademark moves are known by all. The personality is none other than Rajnikanth. Till today he churns out and stars in hit movies like Sivaji: The Boss.If we were to describe him it would go something like this, a person bursting with energy, superb style, an icon that makes a statement with whatever he does, a totally mod individual without any limits to what he can do. To most of us this is what the iconic Rajnikanth looks like. He may have enjoyed uninterrupted stardom for close to a decade and continues to make heads turn even at the age of 58, but has anyone ever wondered what he really looks like in real life?

Real Life::
Quite contrary to what we see him onscreen Rajnikanth is a totally different person, not in nature but by the way he looks. Now if we were to describe him it would be a dark skinned middle age 58 year old star with a receding hairline. This is in stark contrast to what we see of him on screen. No stylish hairdo, no dark glasses, and definitely no death defying stunts. The various tricks we love about this star were developed over the years when he used to work as a conductor on an ST bus service in Maharashtra, these were done to entertain.
