​#Whatif ‘Dune’ was made in Mollywood

Welcome my travel partners. The spice extends life. The spice expands consciousness. The spice is vital to space travel. Are you wondering what I am blabbering about? Just take this ticket to the classic oscar-winning Hollywood film ‘Dune’ and travel into the realm to get a clear idea on what I said. Over to Simon.

Previous episode: #Whatif ‘Jumanji’ was made in Mollywood


#Simon Says, “ Hello guys are you confused on why our master kept on blabbering about ‘Spice’? Let me clear your doubts. Spice Melange is something found in fictional planet Arrakis in the movie ‘Dune’. It has certain benefits like extending people’s lives and enhancing a person’s senses. I hope you got an idea on ‘Spice’. So quickly hand over the ticket to the Hollywood film ‘Dune’ and let's venture into the possibilities of the film being remade in Mollywood. Let's start the engines as ETimes presents the 19th episode of #Whatif ‘Dune’ was made in Mollywood.”

Possibility 1: Paul Atreides as Dulquer Salmaan

#Simon Says, “ Paul Atreides, the protagonist in the fantasy drama film ‘Dune’ was played by the young and talented Hollywood actor Timothee Chalamet. Coming to the Mollywood remake of ‘Dune’, Dulquer Salmaan could be the perfect option to helm the role of Paul Atreides. It would also be a different kind of character that the actor would be essaying and it's sure that he would play the character flawlessly.”

Possibility 2: Leto Atreides 1 as Mammootty

#Simon Says, “ Just imagine the actors Mammootty and Dulquer Salmaan teaming up for a classic film like ‘Dune’. Goosebumps isn't it? Leto Atreides is the father character of Paul Atreides and Mammootty would be apt to reprise the role in the Mollywood remake of ‘Dune’.”

Possibility 3: Lady Jessica as Shobana

#Simon Says, “Lady Jessica in ‘Dune’ is the mother character of Paul Atreides and was originally played by the ace Hollywood actress Rebecca Ferguson. For the Mollywood remake of ‘Dune’ we are only selecting the finest actors from Mollywood and the legendary actress Shobana will be the perfect actor to reprise the role.”

Possibility 4: Duncan Idaho as Tovino Thomas

#Simon Says, “ Duke Leto’s right-hand man Duncan Idaho is one of the strongest characters in ‘Dune’ with a well maintained muscular figure and a strong mind coupled with a bit of sense of humor. Considering all these qualities, the Mollywood actor Tovino Thomas would be perfect to reprise the role of Duncan Idaho.”

Possibility 5: Chani as Kalyani Priyadarshan

#Simon Says, “ Chani is the love interest character of the protagonist Paul Atreides and was originally played by the Hollywood actress Zendaya. The character is one among the members of Freemen society and has a huge importance in the overall storyline of ‘Dune’. Mollywood actress Kalyani Priyadarshan would be apt to play the role of Chani in the Mollywood remake of ‘Dune’.”

#Simon Says, “So finally we have looked into most of the possibilities on #Whatif ‘Dune’ was made in Mollywood. With several elements needing a huge budget it will be a bit hard for the Mollywood film industry to handle such a big-budget film. I hope everyone enjoyed this episode and lets meet next week with yet another interesting episode of #Whatif. Till then bye.”
