Whether it's the plain Jane morphing into a glamazon, or the other way around, they do the trick. The TRPs start soaring! Here's a list of some major T.V makeovers but be warned, the last one will leave you shocked.
Mahi Vij in Laagi Tujhse Lagan: The show started with promos of a girl who has a unibrow and looks ... less than attractive. Nobody could believe that the lead actress of the serial was Mahi Vij, who is really popular. The story is that Nakusha, her character's name, wants to hide her real beauty so that corrupt people in her village around don't take undue advantage of her. Of course, makeover time came soon enough and hello, gorgeous village belle!
Mona Singh from Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi: Jassi was a character who wore braces, broad-frame spectacles and terrible hairstyle. As this was Mona Singh's debut, no one knew what she really looked like. After several twists and turns in the serial, Jassi finally got a classy makeover and voila, how pretty was she!
Sakshi Tanwar in Bade Ache Lagte Hai: Sakshi played the role of a girl-next-door, Priya Sharma who had no interest in grooming herself. Then, thanks to a T.V makeover, she moved on from salwar suits to fancy western wear and turned into a whole new person!
Dipika Samson in Sasural Simar Ka: Well, no makeover in the history of television can beat this one. We usually talk about transformations where a lady either turns "ugly" or really pretty for their character. But, Simar of Sasural Simar Ka chose to turn herself into A FLY. Yes! You read that right. Nothing can beat this sh*t
