Planes, Trains & Automobiles is one of the classic Hollywood comedy movies which might have served as an inspiration for many movies like the Due Date. The plot revolves around a cynic account executive who is desperate to return to his family in Chicago for Thanksgiving while on a business trip in New York. However, the journey is anything but smooth and he goes through a ton of hitchhiking adventures with a wily salesman. If this Hollywood classic is remade in Bollywood, here’s a list of actors who seem perfect for the roles.
