Character played by Mohan to be played by Vinay Rai
Character played by Revathi - to be played by Sadha (okay, maybe it should be Asin, but somehow I'm a little annoyed with Asin these days! The next best actress to fit the role would be Sadha...)
Also felt that maybe the married couple should be in a different setting, e.g. an NRI couple... living in New York perhaps... so, pre-wedding, the heroine's "first love" perhaps happening in Chennai, and then post-wedding, her new husband and she should be living in a major metropolitan city...
And the songs - "Nilaave vaa" and "Mandram vandha thendral" should not be changed... maybe updated slightly, but DEFINITELY not "remixed"... The other songs like "Chinna chinna vanna kuil" can be taken away and replaced with more modern music...
I really would love to see this film remade... I'd love to direct it myself!!!
