Several senior make-up artists thought it is impossible to bring the director Maneesh Sharma's vision of turning a 50-year old man into 25-year old guy into reality, but without losing hope, the team of the film Fan contacted Hollywood artist Greg Cannon who performed an excellent job by turning 50-year old Shah Rukh into a 25-year old lookalike fan Gaurav.
A video released by the makers of film shows Shah Rukh saying how sitting in a chair 4-5 hours daily was the single most irritating thing in the world. However, he promised himself he will not get angry. Greg designed eyebrow pieces, a new nose and teeth. The VFX team did further things like shrinking his body, working on his shoulders and eyes, sharpening the jaw line.
Check out the video how SRK turned into Gaurav Chandna:
