#Whatif ‘Jumanji’ was made in Mollywood

Welcome my travel buddies. Looks like one of our realms is under threat as someone has started playing a dangerous game named ‘Jumanji’ there. The inhabitants of that realm are in need of our help. So kindly take this ticket to the Hollywood movie ‘Jumanji’ and do something to divert the threat. Over to Simon.

#Simon Says, “Hey guys. I think you may have heard of the mishap that is happening in one of the realms as someone started playing the deadly game ‘Jumanji’. The only solution we have is to alter the characters in that realm with the new ones so that we can save that universe. Let's take some of the best options from Mollywood to reprise the roles of the original characters in ‘Jumanji’. So quickly pass me the ticket as ETimes presents the 18th episode of #Whatif ‘Jumanji’ was made in Mollywood.”

#Simon Says, “ The late Hollywood actor Robin Williams has done complete justice in playing the lead character Alan Parrish in the film ‘Jumanji’. It's a fact that the legendary actor is irreplaceable, but if ‘Jumanji’ has a Mollywood remake then the most perfect option to reprise Robin William’s character would be none other than Mohanlal. Needless to say, the character will be safe in the hands of the ace actor.”

#Simon Says, “ Judy Shepherd is one of the kid characters in ‘Jumanji’ who started the deadly game. Originally the role was played by Kirsten Dunst and coming to the Mollywood remake the young and talented actress Mamitha Baiju could fit in the role perfectly.“

#Simon Says, “ Peter Shepherd is the brother of Judy Shepherd in the original film ‘Jumanji’. Originally Peter Shepherd was played by the Hollywood actor Bradley Pierce and in the Mollywood remake Naslen K Gafoor is apt to reprise the role as he has exceptional talent at delivering comedy and serious emotions at the same time.”

#Simon Says, “ Sarah Whittie is one of the best characters in ‘Jumanji’ who is humorous and serious at the same time. The character was flawlessly played by the Hollywood actress Bonnie Hunt. Coming to the Mollywood remake, Manju Warrier who is magnificent at delivering emotions and entertaining the audience at the same time could perfectly reprise the role of Sarah Whittie.”

#Simon Says, “So finally we have successfully saved this ‘Jumanji’ realm guys. We have found the perfect options to reprise the roles of the characters if the film was to be remade in Mollywood. Nothing would have been possible without your help. Thank you so much, my buddies. Let's meet next week at the same time with yet another episode of the #Whatif series. Till then bye.”

Jagathy Sreekumar joined the cast of ‘CBI 5: The Brain’ last February 27 and will be reprising the CBI officer character Vikram in the film. Jagathy Sreekumar’s son Rajkumar Sreekumar will be also essaying a pivotal role in the fifth installment of the CBI series.

For a span of three decades, the CBI series has literally made a special place in the hearts of every Malayali audience. Kudos to the writer SN Swamy who has been successful in crafting storylines embedded with a mystery aspect to it which is very reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes novels. Director K Madhu holds the medal for executing such storylines without losing the engaging factor.

Earlier the makers unveiled the look of Mammootty as the character Sethurama Iyer CBI and the fans were enthralled at watching their favorite investigation character back in action.

Previously, the makers also unveiled an intriguing motion poster for the fifth installment of the CBI series, introducing the title for the film which was set as ‘CBI 5: The Brain’.
