Bengali Stars Who Will Be Apt For Bangla Remakes Of These Blockbusters

Bollywood's ultimate classic, 'Sholay' is the flag bearer of almost everything Bollywood identifies with. From the animosity of Thakur and Gabbar to Jai and Veeru's undying friendship, this movie can never be too old for any generation. Ever thought what it is remade in contemporary Tollywood? Well, we feel Dev and Jeet can play the roles of Jai and Veeru respectively. Sayantika can play Basanti while Srabanti will do justice to the role of Radha. Prosenjit as Thakur and Saswata Chatterjee as Gabbar will complete the perfect casting.

As the era of action drama faded out gradually, the family dramas took over Bollywood. No matter how unreal it seems now, HAHK was a blockbuster of its time. In a Tollywood version, Ankush can easily get under the skin of Prem's mischievous character played by Salman Khan and Nusrat Jahan will fit in the role of chirpy Nisha essayed by Madhuri Dixit.

Bollywood which has earned its recognition by popping out romantic films touched another milestone with Aditya Chopra's directorial debut 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'. Starring SRK and Kajol, this has always been on the must-watch bucket list of Bollywood lovers and die-hard romantics. We feel, if a Bengali version is ever to be made, Jeet and Koel will be able to recreate the magic of Raj and Simran. What say?

Coming out of candy floss romances, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' restores the era of intense love dealing with intricate relationships and emotions which was a striking contrast to the common standard Bollywood. Many wouldn't know that HDDCS is actually inspired by classic Bengali novel 'Nahanyate' written by Maitryee Devi. Raima Sen can make a perfect Nandini (played by Aishwariya Rai) in Tollywood. We feel Dev and Abir can do a commendable job in the role of Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan, respectively.

Hrithik Roshan entered Bollywood like a breath of fresh air with his father's home production and instantly entered the 'A' league of tinsel town. The fresh love story involving a young couple broke several records at the box-office and became a rage of its time. Considering the freshness of the saga, we felt Bonny Sengupta and Koushani Mukherjee, the budding 'juti' of Tollywood will be an apt choice to play the protagonists in the film.

Bollywood turned smart, urbane, and contemporary with Farhan Akhtar's 'Dil Chahta Hai'. Then a new filmmaker Akhtar narrated a simple story of three friends maturing with time in a relatable and credible manner and set a milestone that is yet to be matched. A Bengali remake of this coming of the age film will be a great idea. We think Abir Chatterjee, Parambrata Chatterjee, and Ritwick Chakraborty can essay Akash, Siddharth, and Sameer to the T. Paoli Dam will be an awesome Shalini, won't she?

One of the finest sports movies ever made in Bollywood, 'Chak De India' will always be in our favorite movie list. SRK as Kabeer Khan delivered a wonderful performance as a strict and no-nonsense coach of India's female Hockey team. In Tollywood, we think only Jisshu Sengupta can match the charisma of the character. He can also add his own inputs and make us root for the girls' team once again.

We loved the roller coaster ride that started from Delhi and reached Simla via Bhatinda. 'Jab We Met' won our hearts with an effortless rom-com without going over the top. The film left an impression so unique and endearing that even Hollywood went on to remake the movie in English. So, why not think about a Bengali remake of the venture. At least, we can do some imagination, right. How about Mimi and Yash playing Geet and Aditya in the Bangla version?

If you ask about the most-loved Hindi cinema ever, maximum people might take the name of Raju Hirani's 3 Idiots' which went on to be more than just a movie. Starring Aamir Khan, R. Madhvan, Sharman Joshi, and Kareena Kapoor. The film has been dubbed and remade in several Indian and foreign film industries. This made us think about what if the film were made in Tollywood as well. Fresh faces like Anirban Bhattacharya, Gaurav Chakraborty, and Saheb Bhattacharjee to play the tremendous trio of the film.

Among Salman Khan starrer dramas, 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' is known for its pure emotional storyline that narrated a sweet tale of friendship and humanity. In the film, Salman stripped down his image of the action star and poured his hearts in acting. Looking towards Tollywood, We find only Prosenjit Chatterjee who can emote the role of the naive and lovable Bajrangi with immense honesty.
