1.Rachel Green - Kareena Kapoor
Stylish, classy and divaesque - Kareena Kapoor is well-suited to play the Green girl. And she can handle comedy fairly well to be able to do so.
2.Chandler Bing - Aamir Khan
Think Aamir Khan from Dil Chahta Hai' and 3 Idiots' - and you can see why Mr. Perfectionist would be perfect for the role. Very few actors can pull off the sarcastic act, and something tells us Aamir definitely can.
3.Joey Tribbiani - Saif Ali Khan
Again, think Saif from Dil Chahta Hai' and Salaam Namaste' - he's funny, he's charming and he's every bit as cute as Joey. We can totally see him clinching the How you doin'?' line.
4.Phoebe Buffay - Kalki Koechlin
Kalki Koechlin is a dead ringer for the eccentric Phoebe - she is wacky, hilarious and would look great in Phoebe's crazy outfits.
5.Ross Geller - Ranvir Shorey
This was a tough one - Ross is just so... well, Ross. But methinks, Ranvir Shorey could do a great Ross. For starters, he sort of looks like him - and is an excellent comic actor.
6.Monica Geller - Priyanka Chopra
If you give it time to sink in, Priyanka can actually be a great Monica. The accomplished actress that she is, she could even ditch her husky voice to touch that Monica shrilly note.
7.Dr. Richard Burke - Kabir Bedi
This one certainly is very obvious - Kabir Bedi emanates the very masculine, mature and raw sex appeal that Monica's ex-boyfriend Richard Burke does. Oh, and that mustache!
8.Janice Litman - Sonam Kapoor
True - the fashion sense might not be on the same level, but the shrill annoying voice definitely is. Sonam Kapoor, according to us, will make the perfect Janice.
9.Duck and Chick - Nargis Fakhri and Ileana D'Cruz
We are huge Friends' fans here at MensXP - and love all characters equally. So, we helped find the duck and the chick's Indian counterparts in Miss Duckface Nargis and her Main Tera Hero' co-star Ileana D'Cruz!
10.Marcel the Monkey - Uday Chopra
Well, as long as we are getting the animal characters an Indian cast, we think Uday Chopra would play a great capuchin. What say?
11.Jack Geller - Satish Shah
Satish Shah is our choice to play the loud, walks-in-while-changing Mr. Geller. Jack Geller was a darling secondary character - and Satish Shah can totally pull that off.
12.Judy Geller - Ratna Pathak
Ratna Pathak is to Satish Shah as Judy Geller is to Jack Geller. Her Sarabhai vs. Sarabhai' character was not much different from Mrs. Geller's role - hilariously snooty and a total momma to her son Roshesh.
13.Mike Hannigan - Shahid Kapoor
We pick Shahid Kapoor for Mike Hannigan's role. Both of them are just the sweetest people ever - and both are master of that essential unassuming, deadpan humor.
14.Gunther - Abhay Deol
We agree that this is an unorthodox choice - but Abhay Deol is as underrated still as Gunther was underused. Abhay might look nothing like Gunther, but we think he can totally own the act!
15.Ugly Naked Guy - Shakti Kapoor
We never saw the ugly naked guy's face now, did we? So can we please have Shakti Kapoor from this era as the mysterious neighbor? Forget the weight difference - this is definitely the epitome of ugly nakedness!
16.Estelle Leonard - Ila Arun
Joey's chain-smoking over-made-up agent can be played by no one better than our own Ila Arun. Expressions, voice, that rare toothy grin - Ila will own it.
17.The Stripper - Sunny Leone
Remember the stripper Monica got for Chandler for his bachelor party, who turned out to be a hooker? Well, as far as guest appearances like these go, Sunny Leone's got it.
18.Amanda Buffamonteezi - Mallika Sherawat
Remember the annoying friend of Phoebe and Monica who comes to visit them after getting a weird British accent from her stay in London? If Friends' was made in India, that role seems tailor-made for our own queen of funny accents, Mallika Sherawat!
19.Tag Jones - Imran Khan
Tag Jones was the prettiest boy in the show - and Imran Khan is certainly one pretty boy Bollywood boasts about. Tiger Shroff could actually give Imran a run for his money, but we have to wait for Heropanti' to release before anyone can be the judge of that.
20.Amy Green - Preity Zinta
Self-centered, snobbish and extremely rude, Rachel's sister was a pain in everyone's butt. And Preity Zinta (think of her early years) could pull that off easily. Too bad she does not act anymore.
21.Janine Lecroix - Deepika Padukone
It is heartbreaking to reserve such a small role for such a hottie, but Deepika Padukone is perfect to play Joey's hot dancer neighbor! Lithe, skilled and sexy as hell - Deepika can dance as well as a hundred Janines!
