Can you see Hrithik & Akshay re-create Karate Kid's epic battle in 'Cobra Kai' remake?
Here's a list of actors we would want to be a part of Cobra Kai cast if there is a Bollywood remake of the series. Read on to know more about this in details.
Cobra Kai is an American tele-series which is based on the iconic movie franchise, The Karate Kid. The plot of the series is based on a man named Johnny Lawrence who now works as a part-time job after his defeat in 1984 All-Valley Karate Tournament. He has abandoned his ex-girlfriend Shannon Keene and his son, Robby Keene on the day the latter was born. Johnny now rescues a teenage boy and teaches him karate. He also gets inspired to re-start Cobra Kai karate dojo. If this telly series is remade in Bollywood, here’s a list of actors perfect for the roles.
Johnny Lawrence- Hrithik Roshan
He is the protagonist of the show who now has a temp job as a handy-man. However, his life turns around when he encounters his young neighbour being bullied by a group of boys. He opens his karate dojo called Cobra Kai and teaches karate in the same way as Mr Miyagi used to teach. Known for his action-packed performances in his recent releases, Hrithik Roshan seems just the actor to play this role.

Miguel Diaz- Tiger Shroff
He is the first student of Johnny whom he saves from being bullied. He also forms a close bond with Johnny and their relationship resembles the one like Johnny had Mr Miyagi. Known for being a great action hero and considering Hrithik Roshan to be his mentor, Tiger Shroff might be just the actor to pull off this role.

Robby Keene- Ishaan Khatter
He is Johnny’s estranged son who feels angry at his father’s abandonment and bond with Miguel. As an act of revenge, he starts working for Daniel and also develops a close relationship with his father’s rival. Not only that but also Robby joins Daniel’s dojo instead of his father’s. Known for his great acting skills and recent action sequences in Khaali Peeli, Ishaan Khatter seems ideal to pull off this role.
