Tonight is the finale! I just need to drown myself in GOT stuff.

Before the Dorne plot line was introduced I was hoping an Indian actress would be introduced as Arianne Martell. People always fancast Deepika as Elia Martell and I guess in my head I started picturing Mastani/Leela as Elia. I was excited when they got Indira to play Ellaria, and disappointed when her daughter wasn't played by an Indian actress as well.
Recently Katrina captioned one of her pics asking if she could be in Game of thrones.

So if you could cast Bollywood actors as any GOT/ASOIAF characters, who would you choose?

I think Priyanka would've been an amazing Arianne Martell. I hate that they cut her character. Disha or Alia as Lyanna Stark.

GOT IS LIFE !!!!! hmm I can defs see Shraddha playing Khaleeshi because of how similar the two look but she would need to improve her acting by a lot x 10000 !
KL rahul the cricketer as Drogo
maybe kohli ( lol not really ) but maybe saif or hrithik as jon snow 😳😳

I think the quality in terms of story suffered in s6 and it has been horrendous in s7 but everything else is great. l think it will be greatest tv show in my lifetime at least.

I am not a fan of Emilia's acting so Shraddha's would've been at a similar level in my opinion. Maybe Emilia is slightly better than her.

Jon Snow...hmm. Who has that depressed, forever brooding look? I can't think of anyone

Hrithik for Jaime Lannister. Aish for Cersei

I am sorry that it's not kkhh, or ddlj type of romantic crap that u seem to be fond of..
Some of us like story telling.. serious cinema..


GOT will go down as the greatest cinematic master piece because of the consistency in the story telling and building characters.. the show continues to present new characters and make us fall in love with them!!

There is a potential in something similar as GOT Indian version with so many great actors in bw..

I agree! House Martell had some great potential of casting some indian faces but alas the show didnt do them justice i have seen tons of fancasts of Deepika as Elia and Priyanka as well. I would've loved to see either of them but whatevs
and as for people who don't watch GoT or find it overrated then it's your loss, its one of the best if not already the best show in terms of CGI, storytelling and character building, amazing quality especially the first 3-4 seasons

Just the thought of this show ending makes me so sad. I don't think I will ever see something like this again. I know there will be prequels but I don't think they will be the same. This show was just something else.

thought of more

Disha Patani for Sansa

Zaira Wasim for Arya

there was this awesome post on Tumblr I had found a while back that had casted bollywood actors and actresses in GoT, I dont remember the exact list but I do remember that they had Rishi Kapoor as Varys (and it was his role/look from Agneepath) and it was SO spot on👍🏼
