Actors who said no to SRK's Om Shanti Om

Saying no to Shah Rukh Khan sounds impossible.



A special song in the upcoming Om Shanti Om features Bollywood's biggest names, with 31 stars agreeing to be a part of the memorable song sequence, including stars like Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Saif Ali Khan and Mithun Chakraborty, who flew down from Hyderabad just for the song.



Now, we take a look at the four actors who turned Khan down:



Aamir Khan







They are traditional rivals. When Shah Rukh entered the film industry, it was already dominated by the other two Khans, Salman and Aamir.




Shah Rukh however took them by surprise and went on to become the superstar. He not only displaced the other two Khans, and proved that at the box office every year -- his films made the maximum moolah at the box office.



Though Salman did three films with SRK -- Karan Arjun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Hum Tumhare Hai Sanam -- Aamir never did a film with King Khan.



When Shah Rukh invited Aamir for the song, he simply said he was out of station, so could not come for the shoot.

Dev Anand



The answer came as bolt from blue to director Farah Khan when she invited Dev Anand to do a special appearance in Om Shanti Om.



He reportedly told her, "I am Dev Anand. I never do special appearances. I never did, and will never do in the future."







When a journalist asked him recently why he said so, the legendary romantic hero said, "Because I am Dev Anand and I have always played the main lead, in any film in which I acted."



Such was not the case for other yesteryear stars like as Dharmendra and Jeetendra. Not only did they appear in the OSO song, but also got their sons Bobby Deol and Tusshar Kapoor along for the ride.

Sridevi



Post her marriage to producer Boney Kapoor, Sridevi is yet to make a great comeback in films, unlike Madhuri Dixit. She did try a television serial, Malini Iyer, but despite a great start, this show folded up.







It is not clear why Sridevi refused but if Bollywood gossip is to be believed then she wanted to share the platform with her husband Boney Kapoor, which Farah did not agree to.



Later on Sridevi gave a better excuse, saying she was busy and out of station.
