Riteish Deshmukh has become a bit of master of disguises.

And if you've seen his various avatars in Sajid Khan's upcoming multistarrer Humshakals, in which he looks more convincingly feminine than his costars Saif Ali Khan and Ram Kapoor, you'll agree!

Prosthetics, makeup, wigs -- few actors can work them like Riteish.

Take a look at his many avatars from his movies over the years and vote for your most favourite at the end of this slideshow!

Humshakals

That stance, the flirty skirt, the knotted blouse and a fringe to boot.

Can you think of another actor who can do drag so well?

Didn't think so.

In another still from the movie, Riteish is seen working denim shorts, and a hot pink top with much success.

We won't be surprised if some of his fans fell for this look!

In his 2006 comedy Apna Sapna Money Money, directed by Sangeeth Sivan, the actor had us in splits with his perfect beach babe look.

Which is not to discount the fact that he looked surprisingly convincing as a coy spinster.

And, just like that, snapping out of the dream song sequence, he slipped into the garb of his best friend's (played by Shreyas Talpade) pretty aunt.

Who wouldn't fall for this beauty

This picture here from Sajid Khan's Housefull is proof that Ritiesh can do dreamboat just as well, if not better, than drag.

Check out the washboard abs on this guy!

Double Dhamaal

It was more than Double Dhamaal for thi stalented comic actor when he got to dress up like a Chinese man in this 2007 sequel to Dhamaal.

His costars reportedly couldn't recognise him in this avatar at first.

One of his many avatars in Apna Sapna Money Money saw him in the guise of an old man.

It's surprising what a salt and pepper wig and a prosthetic nose can do to one's appearance!

But what really takes the cake from the film is this sold beggar look.

Vikram Gaikwad, one of the most prolific prosthetic artists in India, created a special mask to give Ritiesh's sharp features a Nepali twist.

What is a sex comedy without some kinky props?

Riteish does the needful along with his Kya Super Kool Hain Hum costar Tusshar Kapoor with faux fur and devil's horns.

Lastly, here is the actor in one of his less wacky looks, as a con artist Lucky in Anubhav Sinha's 2007 action thriller Cash.

Two minutes silence for the time when blonde highlights were a thing.
