Avidathepole
Ivideyum,
the
Mammootty-Mohanlal
starrer
directed
by
KS
Sethu
Madhavan,
is
one
of
the
classic
family
entertainers
of
80's.
The
movie,
which
was
released
in
1985
depicted
the
story
of
two
friends,
who
marries
each
other's
sisters.
Mammootty
essayed
Anirudhan,
a
small-town
man
who
relocates
to
the
city
for
his
job.
Mohanlal
appeared
as
Sukumaran,
a
modern,
wealthy,
city-based
guy
who
eventually
becomes
Anirudhan's
best
friend.
Shobana
and
Kavitha
played
Anirudhan
and
Sukumaran's
sisters
respectively.
Here
we
list
the
names
of
the
actors,
whom
we
feel
are
the
perfect
choices
for
the
main
star
cast
if
Avidathepole
Ivideyum
is
remade
now....
Fahadh
Faasil
As
Anirudhan
aka
Ani
Fahadh
can
undoubtedly
play
the
character
of
Anirudhan
aka
Ani,
the
small-town
based
young
man
who
strongly
believes
in
traditional
values
and
morals,
to
near
perfection.
The
actor
will
surely
be
a
perfect
replacement
for
Mammootty.
Dulquer
Salmaan
As
Sukumaran
aka
Suku
Dulquer
Salmaan
will
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role
of
Sukumaran
aka
Suku.
He
can
surely
do
justice
to
the
role
of
the
modern,
rich
youngster
who
loves
to
live
the
life
on
his
own
terms,
played
by
Mohanlal
in
the
original.
Prayaga
Martin
As
Sujatha
Prayaga
is
totally
fit
for
the
role
of
the
soft-spoken,
hardworking
village
girl
Sujatha,
the
sister
of
Anirudhan
of
eventually
marries
Sukumaran.
The
role
was
essayed
by
Shobana
in
the
original.
Namitha
Pramod
As
Neelima
Namitha
is
a
great
choice
for
the
role
of
Neelima,
Sukumaran's
younger
sister.
She
can
perfectly
play
the
role
of
the
bold,
modern,
beauty
conscious
girl
who
dislikes
her
husband's
middle-class
lifestyle.
Innocent
As
Raghavettan
There
is
no
better
choice
for
the
role
of
Raghavettan,
the
cook
cum
caretaker
of
Suku
and
Ani's
lodge,
other
than
Innocent.
The
actor
will
be
a
perfect
replacement
for
the
legendary
actor
Adoor
Bhasi.
Avidathepole
Ivideyum
dealt
with
the
struggles
faced
by
two
married
couples,
who
come
from
different
cultural
backgrounds.
The
movie
discussed
the
pros
and
cons
of
traditional
and
modern
lifestyles
with
a
touch
of
humour.
Mammootty's
character
Anirudhan
was
the
representative
of
common
Malayali
youngsters
of
80's,
while
Mohanlal's
character
Sukumaran
depicted
a
modern
Malayali
youth
who
is
highly
influenced
by
the
western
culture.
When
Shobana
appeared
as
Anirudhan's
sister
Sujatha,
a
traditional
Malayali
girl
who
has
a
deep
respect
for
the
family
values,
newcomer
Kavitha
Thakur
played
Neelima,
the
sister
of
Sukumaran
who
believes
in
enjoying
life
to
the
fullest.
The
movie,
which
was
jointly
scripted
by
John
Paul
and
C
Radhakrishnan,
was
a
major
commercial
success
of
1985.
Avidathepole
Ivideyum
was
produced
by
Raju
Mathew
for
the
popular
production
banner
Century
Films.
