In the post, Anupam Kher's videos offer an inside view into the makeup and the setup process for The Accidental Prime Minister. The first video shows Anupam Kher getting ready for his shot as he sits on a chair. The makeup crew can be seen in the background who begin working on his face. To perfect the look of Dr Manmohan Singh, the makeup crew adds certain elements to the face of Anupam Kher and thus make it look quite realistic. The video proceeds further and a huge team of makeup artists can be seen working extensively on Anupam Kher’s face by adding beard, wrinkles and other elements. They also try to perfect his eye structure with the help of makeup and thus later proceed to add a turban on his head to finish the look. As the video ends, Anupam Kher’s glimpse as Manmohan Singh can be seen for a while as he wears the jacket and does the Namaste pose to finish off the video.
In the next video that he shared, he can be seen coming out of the office with two guards on the door who later follow him. Anupam Kher in full makeup looks unrecognizable as he dons the look of the ex-Prime Minister. The actor also perfectly captures the walking stance of Manmohan Singh and which made his performance unforgettable in the film. Sharing the videos, Anupam Kher appreciated the work of the makeup artists for doing a great job to help him perfect the role. He also went on to call it one of his most prestigious performances.
