00:00If you look at it, hand, body, fingers, fingertips
00:04When you wear a lungi, you have to take shots from here to the legs
00:08That takes 15-20 minutes, this takes 20 minutes
00:11The neck portion is not just...
00:13Makeup is only till your face
00:15This is the neck, inside...
00:17When the shirt opens, it's inside here
00:19Ears
00:20You have to do everything
00:22Everything
00:23Very complicated
00:24You start with makeup
00:29Your look, your transformation
00:32It takes 2 hours, right?
00:36The whole look
00:37Definitely
00:38For me, it takes 2 hours
00:40For people like me, if you wash your makeup, it takes 30 minutes
00:43Even to remove it, it takes 25 minutes
00:47Even to remove it, it takes 25 minutes
00:49And it's not normal makeup, right? It takes time
00:52I know
00:53In Alavai Kuntapuram, it is completely...
00:55Alavai Kuntapuram is so easy, makeup...
00:57I mean, makeup wise
00:58Whichever movie is difficult, that movie has it
01:00In that way, makeup wise...
01:01Because the topic is makeup
01:03In that way, makeup takes 15-20 minutes
01:05We come, tap, tap, tap
01:06In 5-10 minutes, it's done
01:08You have to be very patient
01:11In the morning, wake up at 4.30
01:14Come, sit, sit like that
01:17From 5 to 7 pm, sit
01:19Get ready
01:21At that time, Sukumar will start
01:24Is it?
01:25Like a pencil check?
01:26Fresh
01:27But you said something about words
01:29In Alavai Kuntapuram, it's easy for you
01:31Makeup wise
01:32Only makeup
01:33Whatever it is, I think you like to take up very difficult and challenging things
01:37Right?
01:38Even if it seems easy, it's a bit...
01:41Do you call it a personality problem?
01:45I mean...
01:46I mean, self-inflicting
01:48I think you take up difficult and easy things
01:51I mean, you have to keep challenging yourself, right?
01:54For every movie
01:55I did this much in this
01:56I did that step in Arya
01:58What should I do next?
01:59What should I do next?
02:00And you are like...
02:01Fans are watching
02:02For them...
02:07Normally, it's not just face makeup
02:09For this film, if you see
02:10Hand
02:11Body
02:12Fingers
02:13Fingertips
02:14From here to the legs
02:1715-20 minutes for that
02:1920 minutes for this hand
02:20Neck portion
02:25Neck
02:26Inside
02:27If the shirt opens
02:28Here, inside
02:29Ears
02:30I used to do everything
02:31Everything
02:32Very complicated
02:33For Rashmika, it's not so easy
02:34Because
02:35One thing, putting on makeup
02:37The process is very hard
02:38But what I appreciated also
02:40Because
02:41When it comes to a girl, there is a glamorous role
02:43But she played a very deglamorous role
02:45Without the fact that
02:46Hey, I am not beautiful
02:47Is it okay?
02:48If you play with this doubt
02:49The performance will also be shaky
02:51How our mind is
02:52The performance will be the same
02:53How we are
02:54The scene will be the same
02:55Yeah
02:56So without any doubt
02:57With total confidence
02:58This character
02:59For this much
03:00She put on dark makeup
03:01Look how beautiful she is outside
03:03She is beautiful inside too
03:04Yeah
03:05She is very cute
03:10She is more proud of the gym than me
03:12If I am very tired one day
03:14I take one day off
03:15Or I take two days off
03:16I mean
03:17Not, you know
03:18Like maybe weekly
03:19Minimum five hours a day
03:20I will see
03:21One or two days off
03:22In between
03:23You know, I will take
03:24But she does it everyday
03:25She comes as late as possible
03:26What I do is
03:27I will see
03:28If it is a little late
03:29I would do it in the morning
03:30One and one and half hour
03:31Or
03:32After shooting
03:33I would come to the room
03:34Around 7.30, 8
03:35I would work out
03:36At 7.30, 8
03:37Sukumar sir would not leave you?
03:38I mean
03:39Five o'clock will be late
03:41Because there
03:424.30, 5 will be late
03:45One and one and half hour journey
03:46Okay
03:47One and one and half
03:48Two hours journey
03:49After coming
03:50After the journey
03:51It is very difficult to work out
03:52I know
03:53You are so tired
03:54You feel sleepy
03:55But at that time
03:56Rashmika surprised me
03:57If I say okay
03:58I will do it
03:59But she
04:00Worked out more than me
