Rishi Kapoor takes over five hours for ‘Kapoor & Sons’ get-up

Rishi Kapoor, who teased his fans and followers with a glimpse of his look in Shakun Batra’s “Kapoor & Sons” in the virtual world, says it takes him over five hours to get ready for his part.

Three-time Oscar winner Greg Cannom, the man behind the transformation of Brad Pitt in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” and Priyanka Chopra’s look in “7 Khoon Maaf”, has been hired for the make-up of the veteran actor.

The actor posted: “Teaser picture. Acclaimed American make-up artist Greg Cannom making me up for ‘Kapoor & Sons’. On chair for five hours.”

By the look of it, Rishi plays the role of an elderly person in the film, which brings Alia Bhatt, Fawad Khan and Sidharth Malhotra together. The male leads will be seen playing the role of writers.

The romantic drama is produced by filmmaker Karan Johar and is slated to hit theatres on March 18 next year.

Cannom’s Bollywood story continues as he is also behind the look of Shah Rukh Khan in “Fan”.
