Anupam's Mother Fails To Recognise Him

Highlights

  • It is believed a mother never fails to recognise her children, even from a distance. But today's make-up techniques can make things very difficult and something similar happened to Anupam Kher and his mom.
  • The actor is playing a double role in his upcoming film Zokkomon - in one role, he looks himself, but for the other his look has been completely changed with the help of make-up experts from France.
  • "I was happy to see that during a trial show of the film, my mother did not get to know that the other actor is also me. In the interval, I told her it's some Russian actor and she actually believed it. So that proved that it looks very real," said the 56-year-old.
  • Zokkomon produced by Walt Disney Studios and written and directed by Satyajit Bhatkal is slated for release Friday.
