R Madhavan as Balmukund Shukla
From romance to action, R Madhavan has essayed a variety of roles in his career spanning two decades. However, a character obsessed with his physicality would surely be a first for the actor.

Samantha Akkineni as Pari Mishra
Samantha Akkineni's last release Oh Baby had her play the role of a buoyant and aspiration young woman, whose dream of becoming a singer takes a back seat after she gets married. Yami Gautam's role in Bala had a stark resemblance to that of Samantha Akkineni's character from Oh Baby.

So, Samantha Akkineni stepping into the shoes of Yami Gautam for Bala's Tamil remake would be an exciting casting choice. Also, Samantha Akkineni and R Madhavan recently worked together for an advertisement, and their shared crackling chemistry has caught the attention of the audiences.
Besides, the lead cast of Bala, critics and audiences took notice of characters like Bachchan Dubey and Mausi, played by Seema Pahwa and Javed Jaffrey. If Bala gets a Tamil remake, veteran actors like Urvashi and Pratap Pothen can also be an ideal choice to play roles essayed by Pahwa and Jaffrey in the original. Bala released in 2019 was one of the highest-grossing movies of last year.
