Dulquer
Salmaan
As
Karthik
Well,
we
cannot
really
think
of
anyone
other
than
Dulquer
Salmaan,
in
the
role
of
the
smart,
charming,
rebellious
Mani
Ratnam
hero,
Karthik
Varadarajan.
If
Alaipayuthey
is
being
remade
in
Malayalam
now,
Dulquer
will
definitely
be
the
best
choice
for
the
role.
NIthya
Menen
As
Shakthi
Nithya
Menen
is
unarguably
the
best
pair
for
Dulquer
Salmaan,
from
the
current
slot.
The
duo's
crackling
chemistry
has
set
the
screen
on
fire
several
times,
especially
in OK
Kanmani.
Above
all
that,
Nithya
Menen
is
an
actress
with exceptional
talent.
She
can
definitely
do
total
justice
to
the
role
of
the
head
strong,
opinionated
Shakthi,
played
by
Shalini
in
the
original.
Sshivada
As
Poorni
The
role
of
Poorni,
the
elder
sister
of
Shakthi,
was
played
by
Swarnamalya
in
Alaipayuthey.
Poorni
is
a
sensible,
matured
woman
who
wholeheartedly
accepts
her
sister's
love
and
supports
her.
If
the
movie
is
remade
in
Malayalam
now,
Sshivada
will
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role.
Vivek
As
Sethu
Vivek
appeared
as
Sethu,
Shakthi's
cousin
who
secretly
loves
her.
The
character,
which
has
both
the
comical
and
emotional
shades
would
be
safe
in
Aju
Varghese's
hands,
if
the
movie
is
remade
in
Malayalam
now.
Manju
Warrier
As
Meena
Senior
actress
Khushboo
made
an
extended
cameo
appearance
in
Alaipayuthey
as
Meena,
who
accidentally hits
Shathi
with
her
car.
If
a
Malayalam
remake
ever
happens,
it
is
undoubtedly
a
tailor-made
role
for
Manju
Warrier.
Kunchacko
Boban
As
Ram
IAS
Arvind
Swamy
appeared
in
an
extended
cameo
role,
as
Meena's
husband
Ram,
who
is
an
IAS
officer.
He
is
the
person
who
makes
Karthik
realise
his
mistakes
and
teaches
him
how
to
be
a
better
husband.
If
the
movie
is
remade
in
Malayalam
now,
the
best
choice
for
the
role
of
Ram
IAS
is
none
other
than
Kunchacko
Boban.
