Superhit Movie Roles Shahrukh Khan Rejected
Shahrukh Khan is the King of Bollywood. Every filmmaker wants to work with this talented superstar at least once. Shahrukh has given some blockbuster hit films which has increased his fan following worldwide. However, like many Bollywood actors, SRK too made some mistakes by turning down legendary roles. The King Khan of Bollywood might have given numerous hits till now in his acting career, however, we so wish he did not reject these films. Did you know Shahrukh Khan was offered Kaho Na Pyaar Hai first? He was the first choice of Rakesh Roshan. Though Koyla flopped, nothing could stop Rakesh Roshan from considering SRK for his next release. Things did not work out so Rakesh decided to cast his son, Hrithik Roshan. This was the debut film for Hrithik which turned out to be a blockbuster. Hrithik became a superstar overnight. The movie also shot Hrithik's co-star Ameesha Patel to fame. Ameesha's role was first offered to Kareena Kapoor who also turned it down.
There are many other Bollywood films that have been rejected by Shahrukh Khan. Surprisingly most of the films SRK turned down became superhit. For example, Jodha Akbar was first offered to SRK. Ashutosh Gowariker, even after the failure of Swades with SRK wanted to cast him in his next film, Jodha Akbar. Here is a list of hit films that were turned down by Shahrukh Khan.
3 Ideots
The biggest grosser of Indian cinema is one of the Bollywood films that Shahrukh Khan rejected to do. Even after SRK rejected Munnabhai MBBS, Rajkumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra wanted to cast him in this film.
Robot
Lagaan
Film after Mother India (1957) and Salaam Bombay! (1988). The role was first offered to Aamir who was not ready to produce it. Ashutosh later went to SRK who too did not show much interest. Then the director convinced Aamir Khan. The rest is all history now!
Munna Bhai MBBS
Sanjay Dutt gave full justice to his tapori film. However, Rajkumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra's first choice was Shahrukh Khan for the role of Munna. Sanjay was to play Zaheer, which eventually went to Jimmy Shergill. We somehow feel good about the fact that SRK rejected this film as he could not have given justice to the role of Munna.
Jodha Akbar
Heyy Babyy
Sajid Khan's directorial debut was first offered to Shahrukh Khan. However, Akshay Kumar worked in the film and it became a superhit.
