In English, grammar is very important; one tiny change can affect the entire form of the sentence or even change its meaning. In the same way, in films, casting is crucial.
Can you imagine Shahid Kapoor in Singham, Saif Ali Khan in Haider, or Rajpal Yadav in Gaddar?
We know it sounds hilariously scary! That’s why casting is critical for a movie’s success, and sometimes, just a single change in the casting can change the entire storyline.
Let’s have a look at the top 10 Casting Couch to Casting “Ouch” cases:
1. Saif Ali Khan in Lagaan
If Saif had played Bhuvan, the film’s storyline would have been slightly different. Instead of having a cricket match, Saif would have married the ‘’Gori Mem’’ and ruled the village. And they lived happily ever after. After all, he is a Nawab!!
2. Emraan Hashmi in Lage Raho Munna Bhai
Well, the headline says it all…you are free to run your imaginations wild.
3. Alia Bhatt in Ghajini
Let’s hope she doesn’t forget to eat those memory pills.
4. Tiger Shroff in Udaan
This film would no longer be about freedom but martial arts.
5. Amitabh Bachchan and Rajnikanth in Andaz Apna Apna
Though an iconic movie with Bollywood current raging stars, it is a newcomer compared to the abovementioned names.
It would be a delight to see what these two iconic Superstars of the Indian film industry would do if they were to be cast in its sequel.
Not only Actors but a change in Director can transform the movie completely.
6. Anurag Kashyap as the Director of Raamleela
The film’s title will change from ‘Goliyon ki Raasleela’ to ‘Galiyon ki Raasleela.’
Now imagine casting being done based on film titles:
7. Pk – Pankaj Kapoor
It would be interesting to see Pankaj Kapoor as PK; undoubtedly, he would have done justice to his role.
Well, we all remember Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
8. Tusshar Kapoor, Uday Chopra, and Jackky Bhagnani in 3 Idiots
God knows what will happen in the movie or to Raju Hirani..??
And there would surely be no engineering students left in the country after watching this movie.
9. Rajpal Yadav in Koi Mil Gaya
This will make one person very happy, apart from Rajpal Yadav himself. It’s Rakesh Roshan; there is no need to spend money on costumes and special effects.
And finally….
10. Sunny Leone in Bang Bang
