Apart
from
make-up
and
superstar
Rajinikanth's
child-like
behaviour,
many
other
factors
are
involved
in
making
the
65-year-old
actor
look
at
least
15
to
20
years
younger
on
the
silver
screen.
One
of
India's
biggest
superstar's,
Rajinikanth
is
still
going
strong.
But,
masking
his
real
age
in
order
to
suit
his
on-screen
character
is
quite
a
task.
"I
have
found
that
fair-skinned
actors
age
faster.
The
creases
and
wrinkles
show
faster
and
are
more
pronounced.
I
don't
think
Rajinikanth
encountered
a
wrinkle
till
he
was
around
50," make-up
artist
Sundaramurti
had
said
in
one
of
his
interviews
to
Times
of
India.
"We
work
more
on
the
things
around
him.
The
digital
touch-up
to
the
face
is
minimal," another
make-up
man
had
said.
When
it
comes
to
his
costumes,
designers
usually
make
sure
Rajinikanth
wears
buttoned
up
shirts
with
either
a
tie
or
a
scarf
around
his
neck.
Since
it
is
difficult
to
hide
the
wrinkles
around
his
neck,
clothing
around
his
neck
area
is
a
must.
Also,
the
star
actor
is
usually
asked
to
grow
beard,
which
makes
life
easier
for
make-up
artists.
While
make-up
artists
do
their
best
to
showcase
a
younger
Rajinikanth
on
the
big
screen,
visual
effects
are
said
to
take
care
of
the
rest.
