From Shah Rukh Khan To Alia Bhatt: What If THESE Bollywood Stars Played The Lead In The Hindi Remake Of The Mandalorian
Season 3 of the popular, Emmy®-winning Star Wars series The Mandalorian continues the Mandalorian's exploits throughout the Star Wars galaxy. The original live-action series from Lucasfilm is now available exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar in English and Hindi, with new episodes released every Wednesday. Seasons 1 and 2 are now accessible in Hindi on the platform as well. Since its introduction in 2020, ‘The Mandalorian’ has established itself as one of the most popular shows to emerge from the Star Wars universe, capturing fans and influencing pop culture.
But have you ever thought about what a Bollywood adaptation of The Mandalorian would look like? While everyone adores Hollywood celebrities, it's time to bring some desi flavour to the mix! Not only would Bollywood performers give The Mandalorian a new aesthetic, but they would also honour to the complexity of the Mandalorian characters while adding an Indian flavour to it. While The Mandalorian already has a star-studded cast that includes Pedro Pascal, Katee Sackhoff, Giancarlo Esposito, and others, Bollywood also has some heavy hitters.

Here's a Bollywood cast that may take the show to new heights if it were done in India:
Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff) played by Alia Bhatt.
Alia Bhatt has demonstrated the character depth required to play the nuances of Bo-Katan's character. Her performance in 'Sadak' is an outstanding illustration of her abilities to represent such a character.
Shah Rukh Khan as the Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal)
The King of Bollywood is the ideal choice for the Mandalorian position. Shah Rukh Khan is one of Bollywood's most magnetic performers, with one of the most successful work portfolios. Shah Rukh Khan has a history of playing characters who require a hard exterior while yet having a tender side for those he cares about and a strong moral compass.

Priyanka Chopra in the role of Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson)
Priyanka is unrivalled in her ability to portray a strong, independent, and courageous woman. She has the pedigree to play the pivotal role of Ahsoka Tano, having played a variety of characters.
Greef Karga (Carl Weathers) played by Sanjay Dutt.
Greef Karga is a survivalist with the ability to modify and make a situation work in his benefit. Sanjay Dutt is the greatest actor to convey his personality. His acting range is best suited to fill Greef Karga's shoes and raise the character to a higher level.
