The Most Herculean task about the latest release PAA was transforming a 67-year old Amitabh Bachchan into 13-year old child Auro – This is how Amitabhji became Auro in PAA..
# The prosthetic makeup, as we know, has been done by Hollywood's Christien Tinsley (THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, CATWOMAN) and Dominie Till (THE LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY).
# According to the reports Bachchan's make-up cost 10 per cent of the total budget.
# It is learnt that it used to take four to five hours daily for Amitabh Bachchan's makeup to be done for his film PAA.
# Not only this, if it used to take four hours to put on the make-up then two hours to remove it.
# While applying the make up he cannot eat, drink and talk for four hours.
# Most of the performance comes out because of the make up.
# Big B wore specially designed dentures so as to effortlessly replicate the voice of a 13-year old child.
# He gets a lisp and his speech pattern gets altered because of the extra teeth.
# He wore the dentures throughout the film's shooting and also had them on while dubbing.
# Infact he has also sung a song in his voice wearing these dentures, which sounds like a child.
# But Big B never ever showed a sign of panic, on the contrary he was always co-operative, patient, cool and full of enthusiasm.
