Hrithik Roshan-Aishwarya Rai get their chance at history when they play Akbar and Jodha in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s film. Last year, Aamir Khan played Mangal Pandey, and reports say Ajay Devgan is all set to play Prithviraj. A wish list of 10 historicals and one epic, in which we’d like to see our stars….
1) Razia Sultan: The story of the legendary female ruler was not given its due in the earlier film, and a remake is in order, and who else but Preity Zinta to play the strong-headed princess who was better than any man.
2) Bahadurshah Zafar: The intrigue and drama of the last days of the Mughal rule, with Amitabh Bachchan playing the doomed poet-emperor.
3) Jhansi Ki Rani: Apparently Aishwarya Rai and Sushmita Sen are battling over the role, but Rani Mukherji with compact built and warrior eyes is made for the part.
4) Chanakya: The master strategist and patriot of the Maurya age, can anyone but Aamir Khan play him?
5) Noorjehan: The role of the imperious Mughal queen, who ruled while husband Jehangir stepped back, suits Aishwarya Rai to perfection.
6) Roopmati-Baaz Bahadur: The beauteous and young Kareena Kapoor could be paired with Shahid Kapoor for this musical romance of Mandu.
7) Sikander: The film about Alexander the Great and the brave King Porus is begging to be remade-Hrithik Roshan as Alexander and Shah Rukh Khan as Porus and the screen will sizzle.
8) Tipu Sultan: The ruler of Mysore who fought the British, a role meant for ‘fighter’ Salman Khan.
9) Karna: The bravest and noblest character in the Mahabharat, the sad-eyed Hrithik Roshan would be just right for the part.
10) Bajirao Mastani: Whoever Sanjay Leela Bhansali casts, and hope he makes it quickly-this great love story between a Peshwa and a dancer.Source URL: http://trendgrafitiinternasional.blogspot.com/2006/12/casting-for-historical-figures_02.html
