A true master: Kamal Haasan donned four different roles in Michael Madana Kama Rajan which has been Kamal's best multiple role performance so far.

Bald man: Kamal Haasan went bald for Aalavandhan (Tamil) a thriller.

Perfect: The talented actor got National Award for his dual roles in Indian, where he played a freedom fighter and his untrustful son. The film also won Haasan regional awards and plaudits for his portrayal in the blockbuster.

Twosome awesome: Haasan also appeared in Anbe Sivam alongside close friend, Madhavan, in a film he was claimed to have ghost-directed.

The chachi: Kamal Haasan was loved by his fans in Kollywood as well as Bollywood for his portrayal as a middle aged woman in Chachi 420. His direction was praised as fantastic and that he handles every scene with precision with the fine tuning it takes to become a wonderful director, whilst his performance was applauded as nothing less than brilliance.

Listen to me: Kamal was also paired with Manisha in a few films.

Heil Hitler: Kamal in one of his avataars from Dasavatharam.

Hey Ram: Haasan also donned technical roles as the writer, the lyricist and the choreogrpaher as well as for producing this film. The bilingual venture, which also Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji failed to become successful commercially but became critically acclaimed.

I am thinking: Kamal Haasan's performance has always been lauded by critics and once The Hindu stated that Haasan had done Tamil cinema proud.
