Viral AI Edits Reimagine Bollywood Version Of Euphoria
An AI artist on Instagram, Siddhanta Abhishek, recently shared a series of edits that place Bollywood stars into the world of ‘Euphoria’. He created a ‘what if’ scenario where the show’s gritty universe blends with familiar Bollywood faces.
Alia Bhatt as Rue, Sidharth Malhotra as Nate

At the centre of the edits is Alia Bhatt stepping into the shoes of Rue, the troubled teenager originally played by Zendaya. Rue’s character, a recovering drug addict trying to make sense of her life, demands emotional depth and unpredictability. Alia’s portrayal in the edit captures that fragile intensity with ease.

Meanwhile, Sidharth Malhotra appears as Nate, the manipulative antagonist played by Jacob Elordi. With his composed smile and underlying menace, Sidharth fits the role of the charming yet deeply unsettling character surprisingly well.
Janhvi Kapoor as Cassie

The edits also feature Janhvi Kapoor as Cassie, a character brought to life by Sydney Sweeney in the original series. Cassie’s vulnerability and need for validation come through clearly, making Janhvi a convincing choice in this imagined casting.Ananya Panday
Ananya Panday as Jules

Ananya Panday takes on the role of Jules, originally portrayed by Hunter Schafer. Known for her individuality and emotional complexity, Jules’ journey of self-discovery finds an interesting parallel in Ananya’s reimagined look.
Katrina Kaif as Maddy

Among all the edits, it is Katrina Kaif as Maddy that has sparked the strongest reaction online. The character, originally played by Alexa Demie, is known for her bold personality, loyalty and striking style.
Katrina’s glamorous look in the edit, complete with Maddy’s signature make-up, has clearly struck a chord with fans. Many took to the comments to share their thoughts, with reactions ranging from Katrina as ‘Maddy looks the best’.
