When Nawazuddin Siddiqui's bald look for the movie Mom was revealed, the media and fans went ga-ga over it. So stunning and convincing was his artistic makeover, he was almost unrecognizable in pics of his special appearance character from the Sridevi Kapoor-Akshaye Khanna starrer. But not many are aware of the secret magical hands behind this overwhelming transformation.

So here we go. Nawazuddin's make-up, hair and prosthetics (sculpting, molding and casting techniques to create advanced cosmetic effects) have been done by none other than National Award winner Preetisheel Singh.

Though the lady has preferred to stay relatively low-profile in the media, Bollywood knows she is no ordinary artisan. Preetisheel excels in everything in the field of make-up - from beauty, character design, tattoos, body painting to high fashion. Quietly, she has also been a pioneer in setting up a prosthetics make-up effects lab in India.


After bagging the 'National Film Award for Best Make-Up' for Sartaj Singh Pannu's pre-Mughal historical Punjabi epic Nanak Shah Fakir, this whiz of makeovers has worked on various artistes in films such as Bajirao Mastani, Haider, Brothers, Rangoon, Parched, Talwar, Ghayal Once Again, Hawaizaada, Finding Fanny, Housefull 3, Shivaay and the Tamil film 24.

Her range of work doesn't end here! Coming up are varied characters in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmavati, Sunny Deol's Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, Vikramaditya Motwane's Bhavesh Joshi and Umesh Shukla's 102 Not Out produced by T-Series. That's a lot of professional styling with her busy brush strokes.
