Hollywood make-up artist makes Aishwarya look old

From a glam girl to historical character — Bollywood screen diva Aishwarya Rai has played a variety of roles. Now for “Action Replay” she will don the look of an old woman and director Vipul Shah says he hired a Hollywood make-up artist to get the right make up on her face.
If certain media reports are to be believed, Aishwarya threw tantrums about getting her make-up done by someone other than her own make-up man, but Shah says otherwise.

“Ash did her old age make up with Paul, a Hollywood make-up artist. When we did it the first time, it didn’t work out well. When you are doing age make-up, you can’t correct it so it had to be removed fully and done again,” said Shah in a statement.

The filmmaker, who has made movies like “Waqt - The Race Against Time” and “Singh Is Kinng”, says the actress shot the scenes patiently.

“It took us six hours to got her look right. We started shooting at three in the morning and the shooting went on till 7 a.m.,” he said.

“Action Replay” also stars Akshay Kumar. The story progresses backwards in time.

Endhiran, starring Superstar Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai, is being filmed at a hectic pace. Director Shankar has been working hard and hopes to complete the film by end of this year. It is believed that Shankar had not slept for several days during shooting schedules, as he wanted to make sure that everything comes out perfectly. But one thing that everyone is happy about is that Aishwarya Rai has picked up Tamil very quickly and is now fluent with the language. Apparently, Rajni was truly impressed and said that he had never seen anyone from North India speak in Tamil so well! Well, regional films are not a problem at all for Aishwarya Rai, as she has even done a Bengali film earlier. Way to go Aishwarya! Tamil indeed is a beautiful language that can be picked up easily!
