It is hard to remember the last time we saw Vikram looking so thin. He sports an extremely sculpted look for his film 'Manoharudu', Ai in Tamil, which is currently under production.

Earlier, director Shankar has informed that the film's making is taking more than a year as Vikram's look is taking time. This is what he meant by 'taking time'. Vikram looks shockingly different, just like the makers promised.

Shooting for Ai had to be delayed for over a month to make sure Vikram's moulding, physical changes and prosthetic make up is perfect for the film. The film's story is said to be so unique that Vikam okayed it immediately. AR Rahman's music, Antony's  editing and PC Sriram's cinematography are an absolute strength to Manoharudu.

Amy Jackson adds dollops of glamor to Ai, which is creating lot of talk over Vikram's extreme makeover. Shankar has said earlier that the actor has once again proved how good he is. The last 25% of Manoharudu is currently being shot, featuring Vikram in many looks.
