Shahrukh made a huge mistake by rejecting Shankar's Robot to make Ra.One.
It's foolish that despite knowing Shankar's terrific box office record, he chose to make a film with Anubhav Sinha.



Aamir was offered it too from what I recall and both didn't like the storyline. Which is weird considering SRK went on to sign Ra.One whose storyline wasn't all that great either.

I think SRK didn't lose out at all. He's still a huge star and maybe if he had done those movies they wouldn't have worked out the way they did. You never know b/c certain actors are born for certain parts. Either way, he's BO record has been quite impressive and very consistent so no fret about his choices.

Who in his right mind rejects Talaash, 3 Idiots, Lagaan, Munnabhai!

What was SRK thinking!
He's nuts!

Although I am happy that he rejected 3I. Amir nailed that!

Thank God Sallu rejected CDI! The role of Kabir Khan was made for SRK!

i've heard first Hrithik , then Abhishek , then Shahid were approached to play Karan ( Siddharth ) in RDB 😆
Would've been awesome to see Aamir & Hrithik together

They forgot to put, Kareena turned down MB's Page 3 which went to Konkona.


Yes..she said she didn't think she could do justice to the role. She also rejected Kaminey and Fashion. Am glad she didn't do fashion..as PC is Miss World she would fit a role of a model than Kareena. But still Fashion was a great role and film to reject. She rejects Fashion but does Heroine. Worst luck ever. 😆

I beleive Kareena also rejected Vidya's role in No One Killed Jessica. Am glad she rejected this one as Rani walked away with all the praise for this film.


Kareena should win an award for rejecting the best of films and roles. Her and Srk.

Salman rejected good films..I don't see him in those films/roles he rejected.
What films did PC reject?

Only good film Kareena rejected was Love Story 2050. 😆

I kind of like how majority of good roles first come to Bebo though. That means a lot of directors believe in her talent more than other actresses. I hope that continues even though she keeps rejecting them. 🥱
