Acting karna bacchon ka khel hai!
From babies to babes of Bollywood& Hollywood, some child actors have proved that once an actor always an actor and that acting has nothing to do with age. It's not just 'War of the Worlds' star Dakota Fanning who impresses us. There are lot of child actors who have transformed themselves into fine heroes and heroines today!
Urmila Matondkar
Who can forget this cute Marathi mulgi who acted brilliantly along side stalwarts like Naseeruddin Shah and Shabana Azmi in the 1983 blockbuster Masoom? Urmila was noticed even back then as a confident kid and we weren't surprised when we saw the girl star opposite her then child co-star Jugal Hansraj in her first film as a lead actor in Aa Gale Lag Jaa! Even as a kid, Urmila was always a star in the making.
Hrithik Roshan
Before hitting the big screen and gaining a perfectly hot chiselled body, this Greek God gave us a sneak peek into his 'skinny' self through grandpa J Om Prakash's film Bhagwaan Dada (1976).
The actor didn't have much to do in the film but it definitely gave us an insight into how Hrithik would look onscreen and thus will stay special for us forever.
Aftab Shivdasani
We saw him in Mr India as a big-eyed cutie-pie and the kid who even then had side-burns, went on to become Bollywood's mast hero Aftab Shivdasani.
Aftab not only started off as a film actor but also did few TV commercials as a child artist.
Aamir Khan
Who can forget this superstar holding his high-waist pants tight in his hands and gesturing his screen mother to take him to a washroom in hit Bollywood film Yaadon Ki Barat? Even then the actor confidently faced the camera and waved and laughed at it! No that's what you call a true superstar - To perform well, even when you are given such embarrassing scenes!
Rishi Kapoor
Can we ever forget the lolly-polly Rishi Kapoor who experiences a serious crush on his teacher Simi Grewaal in papa Raj Kapoor's film Mera Naam Joker? The then over-weight kid, reduced big time and entered in films through 'Bobby' with Dimple Kapadia, making all the girls go crazy for his dancing charm and cute dimples.
Sridevi
We remember this diva, because of her power-packed performances in Lamhe, Khuda Gawaah and Mr India, to name a few. But can we forget the curly haired, short pant clad, dusky Sridevi as a teenager in Julie?
Kirsten Dunst
This Spiderman beauty, popularly known as MJ for her character in the film, had acted in Jumanji with Robin Williams and even with Brad Pitt and Tom cruise in their film Interview with the Vampires (1994) as a child artist!
Drew Barrymore
Probably the cutest child artist of all time, a barely three year old Drew impressed one and all with her gorgeous looks and fine acting in Steven Spielberg's ET!
