Dear
Zindagi,
the
popular
Bollywood
moviethat
featured
Alia
Bhatt
in
the
lead
role
along
with
Shahrukh
Khan
in
a
crucial
role,
was
a
film
that
emerged
as
a
big
success
at
the
box
office.
The
film,
directed
by
Gauri
Shinde
narrated
the
simple
tale
of
a
cinematographer
named
Kaira,
played
by
Alia
Bhatt,
who
goes
through
relationship
problems
in
her
life.
It
is
then
that
Jehangir
Khan,
a
psychiatrist,
(Shahrukh
Khan)
enters
the
scene
to
help
her
sort
out
her
problems.
In
fact,
Dear
Zindagi
was
indeed
different
from
the
usual
Bollywood
dramas,
which
rely
heavily
on
cinematic
elements.
This
film,
rallied
on
the
performances
of
its
lead
characters
and
certain
soulful
moments.
It
was
really
a
pleasure
to
watch
Shahrukh
Khan
in
a
different
role,
which
he
nailed
it
with
his
performance.
Dear
Zindagi
is
worthy
of
a
remake,
even
in
Malayalam.
Such
is
the
concept
that
the
film
handled.
What
if
the
film
gets
a
Malayalam
remake?
Who
all
can
replace
Shahrukh
Khan,
Alia
Bhatt
and
others,
if
ever
such
a
remake
happens?
We
discuss
this
interesting
scenario
here.
Namitha
Pramod
As
Kaira
(Alia
Bhatt)
It
was
Alia
Bhatt,
the
powerhouse
of
talent
who
portrayed
the
complex
role
of
Kaira.
It
is
one
such
character,
which
goes
through
a
lot
of
relationship
issues
and
is
definitely
a
performance-oriented
role.
In
case
of
a
Mollywood
remake,
Namitha
Pramod
shall
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role
and
it
is
sure
to
explore
the
acting
prowess
in
her.
Kunchacko
Boban
As
Jehangir
Khan
(Shahrukh
Khan)
Shahrukh
Khan
had
played
an
extended
guest
role
in
this
film
as
Jehangir
Khan,
who
is
a
psychiatrist.
In
fact,
this
role
is
so
crucial
in
the
film
and
he
made
it
a
memorable
one
with
his
performance.
Coming
to
Mollywood,
we
feel
that
Kunchacko
Boban
shall
be
a
good
choice
for
this
role
as
he
can
bring
in
that
maturity
that
the
character
demands.
The
counselling
sequences,
for
sure,
will
be
handled
effectively
by
Kunchacko
Boban.
Sunny
Wayne
As
Raghuvendar
(Kunal
Kapoor)
Sunny
Wayne
shall
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role
of
Raghuvendra,
a
film
producer,
who
was
once
in
love
with
Kaira,
the
lead
character
of
the
movie.
It
was
Kunal
Kapoor
who
played
the
role
in
the
original
and
Sunny
Wayne
shall
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role,
which
has
good
screen
space
in
the
movie.
Unni
Mukundan
As
Rumi
(Ali
Zafar)
Rumi
is
a
singer
and
a
musician,
who
lives
like
a
free
bird.
In
the
due
course
of
the
story,
Kaira
gets
to
meet
Rumi
and
is
attracted
towards
him.
It
was
Ali
Zafar
who
played
the
role
in
the
original
and
if
ever
a
Malayalam
remake
happens,
we
feel
that
Unni
Mukundan
shall
be
a
good
choice
for
this
short-yet-sweet
role.
Tovino
Thomas
In
A
Guest
Appearance
(Aditya
Roy
Kapur)
Well,
this
particular
role
was
like
an
icing
on
the
cake
for
the
movie.Aditya
Roy
Kapur
made
a
guest
appearance
as
a
person
who
meets
Kaira,
towards
the
end
of
the
movie.
In
case
of
a
remake,
the
role
demands
someone
with
an
amazing
screen
presence
like
Tovino
Thomas.
Well,
those
were
our
choices
for
a
remake
of
Shahrukh
Khan
&
Alia
Bhatt's
Dear
Zindagi.
Do
you
think
these
actors
will
make
the
perfect
cast
for
a
Mollywood
remake?
If
not,
comment
in
your
choices
for
the
same.
