Mahesh Babu is bulking up for Rajamouli's upcoming film, while Prabhas, NTR, and Ram Charan are already preparing for their respective projects.

In the past, a new look meant minor changes in attire or facial hair. Now, actors are altering their physical appearances significantly, gaining or losing weight as required by their roles. Directors spare no effort until the characters come alive on screen as envisioned.

Given the scale of pan-India projects, stars like Ram Charan, currently filming 'Game Changer' and gearing up for a sports drama, meticulously plan their physical transformations over months. Similarly, Prabhas, fresh from 'Kalki' buzz, is set to slim down for his cop role in 'Spirit', slated for production later this year.

NTR is focusing on 'Devara' and 'War 2', adjusting his appearance accordingly, while Allu Arjun, known for his 'Pushpa' persona, prepares for a new look in upcoming projects. Naga Chaitanya, Varun Tej, Akhil, and others are also gearing up to make a mark with their diverse roles and distinctive appearances.

Each star's dedication to their craft ensures that they bring something fresh and exciting to every film, setting high expectations among fans and industry alike.
