Prithviraj
As
Captain
Vijay
Menon
The
role
of
Captain
Vijay
Menon,
who
returns
to
his
native
on
his
annual
leave,
was
brilliantly
played
by
Mohanlal
in
the
original.
If
the
movie
is
being
remade
now,
the
role
of
the
young
soldier
who
seeks
revenge
for
his
father's
death,
will
be
totally
safe
in
Prithviraj's
hands.
Sreenivasan
As
Kumarettan
Veteran
actor
Thilakan
essayed
the
role
of
social
worker
Kumarettan,
who
leads
Vijay
to
the
mystery around
his
father's
death.
It
is
hard
to
think
of
another
actor
in
Thilakan's
place.
But
from
the
current
slot
of
actors,
we
think
Sreenivasan
can
do
justice
to
the
role.
Soubin
Shahir
As
Kutti
Hassan
Well,
there
is
absolutely
no
replacement
for
an
acting
talent
like
Jagathy
Sreekumar,
who
played
Kutti
Hassan
in
Pingami.
But,
if
the
movie
is
being
remade
now,
actor-director
Soubin
Shahir,
who
is
well-known
for
his
natural
humour,
can
be
considered
for
the
role.
Siddique
As
George
Mathai
The
role
of
George
Mathai,
the
businessman,
was
played
by
late
actor
Sukumaran.
If
Pingami
is
being
remade
now,
super
versatile
actor
Siddique
will
be
the
best
choice
for
the
role.
Anu
Sithara
As
Sridevi
Kanaka
depicted
the
character
Sridevi,
the
daughter
of
Kumarettan
who
later
fall
in
love
with
Vijay,
in
the
movie.
From
the
present
crop
of
actresses,
Anu
Sithara
will
be
a
good
choice
for
the
role.
Asha
Sharath
As
Vijay's
Mother
The
character
of
Vijay's
mother
appears
in
two
different
phases
in
the
movie,
as
a
young
mother
and
an
old
lady.
Asha
Sharath
can
be
considered
for
the
role,
which
was
originally
played
by
Shanthi
Krishna,
if
the
movie
is
being
remade
now.
