Appu plus Shanmugi equals Dasavatharam Kamal

Kamal Haasan is at it again. He made everyone raise his or her eyebrow by playing a dwarf in Apoorva Sagodharargal. The 'Appu' in Apoorva Sagodharargal was the talk of the town then and fetched him several awards too.

Then in Avvai Shanmugi he transmogrified himself to an old woman. Both are amazing instances of man changing himself almost unrecognizably to suit the needs of his screen character.

As it happens, Kamal is set to twin together his two moments of cinematic glory.

Now in his Dasavatharam, in which he sports 10 different make-up, Kamal Haasan is bringing back his Appu but in a different form.

This time, he plays an Appu-like character in a Shanmugi-like get up.

Recently a scene featuring him as a dwarfed old woman was shot in AVM Studios.

Astonished were the crew members involved in the shooting of the movie, who could not recognize Kamal Haasan in the new make-up.

The unit members were dumbfounded by the way Kamal went about his work. It was amazing, said one source in the unit.
