We all grooved when Barbie sang the song ‘I’m a Barbie Girl, in the Barbie World’ when she went for a drive with Ken. Most of us even owned Barbie dolls and dressed them like elder sisters and also took them around as kids and adults too.
While we all enjoyed playing with the dolls, watching a movie on the quintessential Barbie dolls never crossed our minds. But seems like this fantasy is going to be true soon.
Taking to social media, American actress and director Greta Gerwig announced that she’s coming with a movie on them.

The trailer of the movie which stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in lead roles is expected to be released on July 21. However, the official trailer of the toy franchise has been dropped giving everyone a run for their money.
Watch:
After reliving their childhood memories, desis thought that some Indian celebs can also perfectly play the roles of Barbies and Kens in the movie.
Soon, they started recreating the Barbie posters, featuring their favourite Indian actresses and celebrities. Take a look:

Let’s not forget that actress Katrina Kaif is the first Indian actress to have a Barbie Doll modelled on her.
IMO, Aishwarya Rai does look like a Barbie.
Who wants to see Sonali Bendre make a comeback with an Indian version of the Barbie movie?
Deepika Padukone perfectly fits the modern and chic Barbie character.
Someone thought that Kareena Kapoor Khan’s character ‘Pooh’ from ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham’ and Rani’s character ‘Tina Malhotra’ in ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ can also be added to the list of desi Barbies.
Where are ‘Pooh’ from KKKG and ‘Tina’ from KKHH??
