Doctor Who is one of the greatest shows based on the concept of time travel. The science-fiction show depicts the mind-blowing adventures of an extraterrestrial Timelord called The Doctor which is an all appearing human. The Doctor explores the universe in his time-travelling space ship TARDIS which appears like a blue police box. The Doctor is accompanied by a number of companions in his battle with a variety of foes in his mission to save civilisations and also help people in need.

The show enjoys a cult following all over the world. The TV show originally ran from 1963 to 1989 before being relaunched again in 2005. As Doctor Who is a time travel show, there are different versions of The Doctor. Till now, there have been thirteen main doctors. The transition of actors is written into the plot with the concept of regeneration into a new incarnation by which The Doctor transforms into a new body when the current one is too badly harmed to heal normally.

The Doctor is currently played by Jodie Whittaker who is the first female doctor in Doctor Who. The show proved to be a huge hit all over the world but what if the show gets a Bollywood remake? Here is a look at the Doctor Who cast if the show is ever made in Bollywood.
