Glow forth and conquer

1 Ariel Winter. We watched child genius Alex Dunphy grow up on Modern Family. She went from bespectacled nerd who ratted out her siblings, to gorgeous slay queen who turned heads. As Winter, 26, grew older through the course of the show, she got braces, lost them, and puberty did what puberty does, pushing her into the spotlight for reasons that had nothing to do with her acting. It's led her to take a break from the screen and become a mental-health advocate.
2 Virat Kohli. The 35year-old cricketer had humble beginnings. A quick Google search reveals older images, when Kohli, bubbling with raw potential and talent, had a chubby face, unkempt brows, but the same sharp gaze. With time, not only did he power through the rungs of the cricketing world, he's muscled up, settled on a fine beard and gained some rizz.
3 Ahsaas Channa.
She's the spooky little boy from Ram Gopal Varma's Vaastu Shastra (2004); she's also Shah Rukh Khan's son in Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006); and the curious boy in My Friend Ganesha (2007). After years of being mistaken for a boy due, Channa has finally come into her own playing lead roles on Girls Hostel, Kota Factory, Hostel Daze, and Mismatched.
