Our columnist Cynthia (The Hogwarts Inquiry) interviewed Mischa, a girl who auditioned for the role of Parvati Patil in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Click here for the interview!


I think she'd be a good Parvati, even though she's not British.

Any thoughts?
NastyShort
*bangs head on keyboard* Not that I'd get anywhere if I tried out for Parvati or anything.....lol. I think she would be a good Parvati. I'm basically fine with anyone playing her just as long as they don't get like one of those little girls from Desi films to play her. Like the one in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.....*shudder*
feerique
OMG I think she could be a perfect Parvati smile.gif I hope she got it.
Naz
i think that she looks like a good parvati too!! but what is wrong with the girl in kuch kuch hota hai??
NastyShort
*falls on her butt*

EH??? ANOTHER DESI PERSON??

That girl is SOOO annoying. It was a good movie and all, but she looked like a fatter, tanner version of me without glasses. Which is why she bothered me so much. I wonder what happened to her now....
Naz
yes, another desi person
well yeh she is a bit annoying and i hate that she got to be in a movie withi shah rukh and i didnt. but i guess that she was o.k. and who knows what happens to the desi child stars

*nod nod* Grr.....Shahrukh is kind of hot for a 45 year-old guy. :shock:

Eh, watch her be one of those little kids in Bend it like Beckham. They would work.
Naz
ofcourse shahrukh is hot. and he is a good actor. i just watched main hoo na and he was so funny!! hahaha laugh.gif
NastyShort
I figured out a good Parvati.

The girl who plays Saathi in the Matrix III movie. SHE WAS SOOOO CUTE!
PrettynPink8004
I think that Mischa would make a good Paravti. I wanted to play her!!!!!!!!!! lol but she looks like she would be better!
Naz
i dont really care that much who they pick as parvati. i just hope that whoever they picked is good.
NastyShort
Yesh yesh, she better be good. Or else I might be tempted to lunge at the screen and attack her. sleep.gif
PrettynPink8004
lol. yep i think she'll be better than I could be... *looks around* did I just say that???
Naz
haha i wish that i could act. i dont have any talents. isnt that sad?
PrettynPink8004
Did anyone see Parvati in POA? Wasn't she the one who made the boggart turn into a snake then a jack-in-the-box???
Matthew
Yeah, that would be her. That was an awesome scene!
Ceres
Yes...that Jack in the box was scarier than the snake...

But in the book... wasn't Parvati's boggart a mummy? Or am I confusing her with Lavander? *checks her book* Yup, Parvati's was a mummy!
NastyShort
The theory was that Cuaron never read the books. :shock:

*blinks* Parvati looked like my friend. In a much paler form......*narg* I felt like crying when I heard "Parvati, it's your turn."

Because now, it would just be STUPID to change Parvati, and all the other girlies hopes and dreams have been crushed!
PrettynPink8004
Yeah, i totally know what you mean. But Matthew is right, that was an awsome scene. It was one of my favorites.
Naz
i loved it too. especially when snape was wearing the dress. that was good
PrettynPink8004
my favorite part in that scene was when Lupin turned on the music. i liked the music he turned on. But my favorite part in the movie? when the twins gave harry the mauraders map.
Naz
i liked the part where they were in hogsmeade and harry was wearing the invisibility cloak. that was hilarious
PrettynPink8004
yeah that was so funny.
Naz
lol, yeh i wish that they left the part in when draco sees harry's "floating head"
PrettynPink8004
yeah, they left out alot of things that were in the book. Like pig. they didn't put him in there. sad.gif

Yeah! I'd seen it!
So I wondered why GOF held casting again?
hermioneweasley
where did she send in her audition and everything?? MOD EDIT:darn i want to play parvati so freakin bad...is she indian?
Naz
parvati is indian. and why were they casting for her role???
hermioneweasley
No, i meant, is Mischa indian? Did she audition yet? I wonder if they chose anyone yet.
PrettynPink8004
I thought they chose the gurl in the movie, but yeah why sould they hold auditions again? Makes no sense.

Mischa was South American I think.....she wasn't Indian but she looked Indian.
PrettynPink8004
Okay, Kool. She did look Indian. I wonder why they held auditions if they already had a Parvati. Does anyone know?
NastyShort
No, we don't know. Probably a director change. Maybe Cuaron took a fancy to this little girl walking around with her mummy in a sari store. The casting director for GoF probably didn't know that PoA already had a Parvati.
PrettynPink8004
lol, yeah, true. She did look kind of young.
Catch_22
Wow. Scary thing is she's just like i imagined her. lol
HarryPotterFanatic
I wish i could be Parvati. I am indian. oh and hey i loved kuch kuch hota hai! it was my fav indian movie, wats wrong with rani or kajol. they are soo cool..lol smile.gif if only i was British. boo hoo :cry:
HarryPotterFanatic
yea i thought the 2 indian girls in POA were Parvati and padma.
Catch_22
So they had to find TWIN indian girls. interesting. oh oh and living in britian too. forgot about that minor detail. this ought to be interesting...
NastyShort
But the girls weren't twins....were they? They didn't look identical to me. And Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was a good movie......Kajol ish kind of getting old now. I thought she was really annoying in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Ghum. Actually I pretty much hated that movie, except for Kareena Kapoor because she was pretty funny.

HA! They should have used the girl who played mini-Kareena to be Parvati.
Naz
yeh!! they should have!! i didnt like kareena that much (poo? what kind of a nickname is that?) and yeh i think that indian girls all pretty much almost looks the same... i look like everyone i know... :?
DancingVeela
That's got to be disapointing for Parvati in Poa...

So yeah... hope you had fun but we're re-casting you....
NastyShort
Lol, that's good. Her parents will probably file a lawsuit or something if Cuaron didn't tell her that they were going to re-cast her.
Naz
so no one knows who is going to play her and padma in gof?
ashleigh07
Yeah I was wondering why they were having auditions for the twins when they had already been cast in POA.

My guess is that the girls that played them in POA can't do it for GoF.

Does anyone know for sure why they're recasting??

I thought the girls they picked in POA were pretty close to what I imagined Parvati and Padma to look like.

DancingVeela - Hahahahaha, good one!! biggrin.gif

HarryPotterFanatic - I *so* know what you mean, mate!! I'm Chinese and if only I was British, then I could have auditioned for the part of Cho Chang!!
