Aloha Srinivas,
I don't have suggestions on how to pass parameters to hyperref using the
macro features of org-mode. It isn't something I've tried to do.
Sorry.
I don't think org-article.cls was a good idea. I learned a lot cobbling
it together, but in the end I wasn't able to keep the class general and
add all the packages that the org-mode crowd might expect. An
org-article.cls that implements a specific style is a good idea, IMO,
and my unsupported org-article.cls might serve as a useful starting
point for someone.
All the best,
Tom
