R Madhavan’s drastic transformation for Rocketry

Madhavan had earlier shared a video post on his Instagram page showing him getting a makeover, and he described the whole procedure as, “When getting in the character take 2 years and getting the look in place take 14 hrs on the chair.”

In the picture, the 48-year-old actor looks like a doppelganger of Nambi Narayanan.

Talking about his look, Madhavan, who worked on his looks for the film for about two and a half years, said, “The process took painfully long, about two days of sitting on a chair for 14 hours at a stretch. Initially, it looked easy, but later I realised how tough it was on the body.”

Adding to it, he said, “The look is half the battle won. The other half was really tough because the age group I am playing is around 70-75. Mr Nambi is a very good looking man and he has got his own charm and charisma so it took me around two and a half years to actually imbibe him and learn how to walk like him. It wasn’t easy, and it’s probably one of the toughest looks and characters I’ve had to pull off.”

The biopic is being produced by Tricolour Films in association with Vijay Moolan Talkies and Saffron Ganesha Entertainment. Rocketry: The Nambi Effect will be a trilingual in English, Hindi and Tamil and will be shot extensively across India, Princeton, Scotland, France and Russia.
