Bollywood has numerous iconic characters. Many roles are created with a certain vision in mind, and, with the right star attached, are launched into an everlasting hall of fame. Whether it’s the actor’s craft, the director’s skill, or a brilliant amalgam of both, certain roles call out to audiences in a way that we cannot explain.<\/p>\n

Well, what if those characters were played by Pakistani stars? We put on our thinking caps and came up with a list of seven gifted Pakistani actors who can nail seven memorable Indian cinema roles. Here’s how it goes:<\/p>\n

Kabir Singh – Gohar Rasheed<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gohar is an acting chameleon. Slowly but surely, he’s proven his acting mettle. Therefore, seeing him in an anti-heroic avatar would be an excellent challenge for him, and a much-needed treat for viewers.<\/p>\n

Devdas – Wahaj Ali<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wahaj is an actor who can embody mournful yearning with excellence. Throw in shades of grey and hints of aggression and we have a winning combination.<\/p>\n

Don – Humayun Saeed<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Humayun is our Shah Rukh Khan. The persona, the charm, the wit, the vibes – all of that comes naturally to our local superstar.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Geet – Hania Aamir<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If there was ever a role created solely for Hania, it would be Geet from Jab We Met<\/em>. She could easily essay the bubbly, quirky role that calls for a sombre reality check in the second half. A perfect fit, if we’re being honest.<\/p>\n

Tara Singh – Hamza Ali Abbasi<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While there’s no way to visually draw a parallel, Hamza carries a certain heat and passion for action that is inherent to the Gadar <\/em>character. It could make for a promising crossover.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Prem – Bilal Abbas Khan<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The lovable, goofy, adorable Prem, made into a household staple by Salman Khan, would not be an easy weight to carry. However, if there’s any actor who can slip into the\u00a0Hum Saath Saath Hain<\/em> role with ease owing to his boyish charms and impeccable skills, it’s Bilal.<\/p>\n

Rani – Iqra Aziz<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once again, this is a match made in heaven. Iqra has played the eccentrically lovable, girl-next-door numerous times and in a style true to the actor, she could add a little extra snap to the Queen<\/em> character.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Are there any other roles that you think would be ideal for Pakistani stars? Add them to the list!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
