It
has
been
10
years
since
the
film
Classmates
released.
It
was
on
August
25,
2016,
that
the
film
hit
the
theatres
of
Kerala,
bringing
waves
of
freshness
to
the
Malayalam
film
industry.
The
film
directed
by
Lal
Jose
had
a
bunch
of
young
actors
in
the
lead
roles.
It
featured
Prithviraj,
Jayasurya,
Indrajith,
Narain,
Kavya
Madhavan,
Radhika
etc.
in
prominent
roles.
What
if
this
film
is
being
made
now?
Have
you
thought
about
it?
Who
would
be
the
perfect
actors
to
reprise
the
roles?
Here
we
list
our
pick
of
actors..
Go
through
the
slides
to
find
out
who
can
replace
whom..
Dulquer
Salmaan
As
Sukumaran
Dulquer
Salmaan
would
be
the
perfect
choice
to
replace
Prithviraj
in
the
role
of
the
firebrand
leader,
Sukumaran.
He
is
sure
to
bring
in
the
intensity
to
the
character
and
has
that
ability
to
pull
off
the
most
intense
and
emotional
sequences
with
ease.
Tovino
Thomas
As
Satishan
Kanjikuzhy
Tovino
Thomas
could
pull
off
the
character
of
Satishan
Kanjikkuzhy
with
ease,
as
he
can
mix
comedy
and
negative
elements
in
the
right
proportions.
We
have
seen
him
don
the
character
of
a
politician
in
the
film
ABCD
and
he
is
an
able
foil
to
Dulquer
Salmaan.
Sunny
Wayne
As
Pious
Sunny
Wayne
has
the
ability
to
handle
comedy
and
more
importantly,
the
combo
of
Dulquer
Salmaan
and
Sunny
Wayne
would
set
the
screens
on
fire.
Their
chemistry
would
definitely
be
a
big
positive.
Unni
Mukundan
As
Murali
The
role
of
Murali
is
a
hard
one
to
replace,
as
the
character
was
the
most
loved
one
among
the
lots.
We
thought
that
Unni
Mukundan
would
be
the
perfect
choice
to
do
this
role
as
he
has
got
that
charm
and
innocence
that
the
character
requires.
Namitha
Pramod
As
Thara
Kurup
Well,
Namitha
Pramod
is
the
perfect
choice
to
do
the
role
of
Thara
Kurup.
She
can
bring
in
that
attitude
to
the
character
and
more
importantly,
she
can
look
convincing
as
a
classical
dancer.
Miya
As
Raziya
Raziya
is
one
such
character
that
remains
silent
for
most
part
of
the
film,
but
has
a
crucial
role
to
play
towards
the
end.
We
feel
that
Miya
would
be
the
perfect
choice
to
do
this
lovely
character.
Renji
Panikker
As
Iyer
Sir
Well,
Renji
Panikker
should
be
the
one
and
only
choice
when
it
comes
to
the
role
of
Iyer
Sir,
played
by
Balachandra
Menon
in
the
original.
The
actor-writer
would
fit
to
a
T,
as
the
character.
Alencier
Ley
As
Esthappanachan
This
is
one
of
the
toughest
characters
to
replace
in
this
film.
From
the
host
of
current
character
actors,
Alencier
Ley
is
one
such
actor
who
can
do
justice
to
the
role
of
Esthappanachan.
Aju
Varghese
As
Vaalu
Vasu
Vaalu
Vasu
is
the
right
hand
of
Satishan
Kanjikkuzhy
and
has
a
good
space
in
the
film.
Aju
Varghese
can
do
that
role
with
ease
and
he
is
sure
to
bring
in
some
good
moments
of
laughter.
In
fact,
the
casting
of
the
film
was
perfect
and
it
set
the
tone
for
the
film.
Nobody
thought
that
Jayasurya
would
fit
in
to
a
character
with
a
negative
shade.
But,
the
actor
proved
his
versatility
with
the
role
of
Satishan
Kanjikuzhy.
Similarly,
the
role
of
Pious
was
handed
over
to
Indrajith.
For
the
first
time,
Indrajith
handled
a
role
with
a
comic
angle
and
the
casting
turned
out
to
be
perfect.
Same
is
the
case
of
Narain,
who
was
cast
in
the
role
of
Murali.
Classmates
was
a
trendsetter
back
then.
The
film
went
on
to
break
many
collection
records
and
became
an
industry
hit,
breaking
the
records
earlier
set
by
Rajamanikyam.
Classmates
was
also
remade
in
to
Tamil,
Telugu
and
Marathi
languages.
