Sivakarthikeyan
is
fast
becoming
a
force
to
reckon
with
as
his
stature
is
growing
with
each
and
every
released
film
of
his.
His
upcoming
film
however,
might
help
his
career
graph
ascent
almost
vertically,
for
he
is
all
set
to
don
3
different
get-ups
in
the
movie.
If
he
can
pull
off
such
a
difficult
task
effectively,
tremendous
respect
from
his
contemporaries
and
fans
will
become
inevitable
as
the
3
roles
he
is
about
to
play
are
said
to
be
that
of
a
young
man,
an
old
man
and
a
person
with
feminine
characteristics.
No
wonder,
famed
make-up
man
Sean
Foot
of
Weta
Workshop
has
been
roped
in
to
take
care
of
Siva's
looks
in
the
movie.
Now
if
we
look
back
at
history,
heroes
who
have
portrayed
3
different
roles
effectively
have
gone
on
to
become
big
stars,
Ajith
being
a
prime
example.
Sivakarthikeyan's
3
get-ups
sounds
a
lot
similar
to
what
Thala
Ajith
did
in
Varalaru;
an
old
man,
a
young
man
and
a
man
with
feminine
attributes.
Not
only
did
Ajith
win
a
Filmfare
Award
for
the
film
but
he
also
gained
respect
as
an
actor
among
his
fellow
actors
and
fans.
Though
Sivakarthikeyan
might
achieve
something
similar
through
his
next
flick,
it
remains
to
be
seen
if
he
can
outperform
Ajith
which
is
no
mean
task.
In
the
slides
below,
take
a
look
at
these
Tamil
heroes
who
have
and
will
don
three
different
get-ups
in
their
movies:
Rajinikanth
In
Moondru
Mugam
Directed
by
A
Jagannathan,
Rajinikanth's
triple
roles
namely
Alex
Pandian,
Arun
and
John
became
the
talk
of
the
town
at
the
time
of
this
movie's
release.
The
film
was
a
mega-hit
and
completed
a
250-days
run
at
the
box
office.
Kamal
Haasan
In
Apoorva
Sagodharargal
Playing
the
roles
of
inspector
Sethupathy,
mechanic
Raja
and
a
dwarf
Appu,
Kamal
had
set
a
benchmark
back
in
1989
for
actors
wanting
to
play
triple
roles.
The
film
was
a
blockbuster
and
completed
600-day
run
at
the
box
office
with
about
20
million
tickets
sold,
which
was
the
highest
for
any
Tamil
movie
at
that
time.
Ajith
In
Varalaru
As
mentioned
earlier,
Varalaru
instantly
became
one
of
Ajith's
most
important
films
of
his
career.
More
than
anything
else,
the
fearlessness
exhibited
by
the
Mankatha
star
back
in
2006
was
praised
by
critics,
fans
and
other
celebrities.
Vikram
In
'I'
From
a
bodybuilder
to
a
model
to
an
ugly
looking
person
with
a
hunchback,
it
can
be
safely
said
that
Vikram
went
a
step
ahead
in
portraying
3
different
looks
on
screen.
His
efforts
to
get
the
looks
of
each
and
every
character
right
is
not
something
which
can
be
done
on
a
regular
basis.
Suriya
In
24
(Upcoming)
It
is
being
widely
reported
that
Suriya's
upcoming
movie
24
will
have
him
playing
3
roles
with
different
get-ups.
The
movie
is
being
directed
by
Vikram
Kumar
of
Manam
fame(Telugu).
Sivakarthikeyan
In
His
Upcoming
Film
And
of
course
the
latest
person
to
join
this
elite
list
is
Sivakarthikeyan.
His
next
movie
will
also
be
his
costliest
film
till
date
and
it
already
has
some
of
the
most
talented
technicians
on
board.
