i like that avan jogia guy, he's the best kartik i've seen so far. its unfortunate that he is not indian though, because i think the actor for kartik should probably be indian, to keep it authentic.

I think Bollywood is Bombay hollywood or something like that. (Even though it isn't Bombay anymore.) So what we need is an Indian fan!!! Better yet, I'm an Indian. But... I don't have any suggestions. I haven't watched a Bollywood film in a long time, and if I did, it'd probably have SRK in it. I don't really see a lot of young(ish) Indian actors... Sorry!

This guy. He's a pretty well-known actor. Anyway, now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think Bollywood actors would be fit for this movie because it won't have any singing or dancing becuase... I don't know. What kind of accent are Kartik and Amar supposed to have?

yeah, I think Felipe would make a great choice!
As for their accents...I dunno. Probably a mix of England/Indian. But it's never really speciifed in the books, so I guess that could be totally up to interpretation.

totally agree that felipe dieppa is a good choice for kartik. but does he have indian blood? i think we need to find someone who's english but has indian heritage or an indian who moved to the UK at a young age (so they still have traces of indian accent when they speak english). but, that's just my opinion. ;D i like peoples suggestions of manish dayal though other suggestions: Osman Khalid Butt according to imdb he's pakistani and 22years...so maybe amar? probably would be good if he tanned a bit.

I think that Dabvid with short hair could be Amar: Lookswise anyways cuz I can't see him being Mean/Evil

Wow, good finding!! Now, this is one really good Kartik!! Most definitely best one I've yet to see!!
What kind of accent are Kartik and Amar supposed to have? It is never specified in the books but we know Kartik was taken away from his family when he was a baby and was trained by a secret brotherhood consisted of English gentleman, before becoming Gemma's guardian he was accompanying Amar who was Virginia/Mary's guardian in an India ruled by British and last but not least Gemma never comments on his accent, which could easily mean there is nothing weird or noticeable about it therefore it might be a perfect British accent. Which makes total sense, Kartik's greatest talent, and a very important for the job he's doing, is to blend in and go by unnoticeable.

Naveen Andrews as Amar: I think his accent is a combo of British and Indian, which is sort of how I imagine the accents of Kartik and Amar.
