Friends is one of the most popular sitcoms in Hollywood which still has a huge fan base. The iconic group of six people forever hanging out at Central Perk is even nostalgia for many. The plot is based on three girls and three guys who navigate through life, career, love, loss and friendship while living in New York City. If this popular sitcom is remade using South Indian cast, here’s a list of actors who seem perfect for the roles.

Rachel Green- Pooja Hegde

She used to be a spoilt, rich girl who later turns into an independent woman with a successful career. Known for her impeccable fashion sense, something which Rachel is also credited for in the show, Pooja Hedge might be just the person for this role.
