‘Gulabo Sitabo’: Amitabh Bachchan’s massive transformation will leave you shocked – watch BTS video

Since the announcement, Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana starrer ‘Gulabo Sitabo’ has been one of the most awaited movies of the year. The film was supposed to be one of the biggest releases of the first half of the year, but alas, the Coronavirus lockdown put water on all the efforts of the movie’s theatrical release. Now that the film is having an OTT release, here’s a behind-the-scenes video of the film where you can see Amitabh Bachchan’s amazing transformation.

Amitabh Bachchan plays Mirza, a 78-year-old owner of a crumbling Lucknow mansion, that is overrun with tenants.  His look is indeed unique. Have a look at how it was achieved in the video right here:

Isn’t his transformation with the huge nose amazing? It makes you want to watch the movie right about now.

The trailer of this slice-of-life dramedy has received positive word of mouth from B-town and fans. One of the highlights of the trailer was Mr.Bachchan’s never-seen-before look in the movie. Mr Bachchan’s larger-than-life persona is brilliantly down-played by the unkempt silver beard, weary spectacles and a long nose, making him almost unrecognizable. The credit goes to the make-up artist PIA Cornelius, who has blended the prosthetics in a way that doesn’t restrict Mr Bachchan expressions and his ability to emote and instead adds to his character and his performance.

The Shoojit Sircar directorial is all set to release on Amazon Prime on June 12. Stay hooked onto Bollywood Bubble for the movie review soon.
