Mumbai: Actress Kareena Kapoor says she has no qualms about rejecting those film offers which later went on to become blockbusters. Sanjay Leela Bhansali's recently released 'Ram-Leela' was the latest in this list, said the 33-year-old actress.

"I don't know what clicks with me as an actor. There is work for everyone. I will do what I believe in. Like ten years back if I did not want to do a film then I used to be the first one to leave it."

"There is no heroine like me who has left more films than I have, and given them on a platter to everybody and said go do it. I think I am mad...I am like if I don't want to do a film I will not do it. I would sit at home and enjoy, party and travel," Kareena told PTI. 😲 🤣

In the past, she has reportedly rejected films like 'Chennai Express', 'Fashion', 'Page 3' and 'Kal Ho Nas Ho'.

"I have said no to films like 'Ram Leela'... I am sure it interests other actors which is fine but at that moment it did not excite me," Kareena said.

And she does not regret of not doing the films that she turned down even in hindsight, though some of them became blockbusters.

"Those who know me as a person know it that I am not the kind of person who have any regrets in life. I never look back in life. I thank god for being kind to me," she added.

"The role is more important to me, when you are hearing the narration you should feel good. Many actors like to read scripts, I try to read scripts but I fall asleep. I like to hear it. So when I hear the script it should excite me. 😆 Sometimes you like it (script) and sometimes you don't," she said.

Kareena will be seen next in 'Shuddhi' opposite Hrithik Roshan, and in a special appearance in actor-husband Saif Ali Khan's 'Happy Ending' and Akshay Kumar's 'Gabbar'.

GTPM damage control!
and what does she mean she has given to them on platter?
they did their homework, put in hard work- lets not take credit away from them that easy!
and seriously- does it even matter who came first? DOES IT?
thats such a shallow thinking
in that way amrita singh can always claim- saif was first in my life!
what bullshit is that!
ofcourse they are in same profession- many actors will turn a movie down and others will do it- eventually who gets it and nails it is the winner
Ask your own sis bebo- her role in DTPH which won her NA was rejected by so many but eventually they weren't winners- it was lolo for nailing it!

This girl 🤣 No heroine has rejected as many films as you did? Sure, no heroine has been rejected as many times as you have been by the audiences either.

Doesn't matter who was chosen first, it matters who worked for the role and didn't leave the movie behind when time was not in its favour. And seriously, the movie is finished, Kareena, please stop with these interviews. And rejecting a movie is not something to proud of. Sticking to it in bad times, is.

You're a fine actress, please leave RL behind and concentrate on your future projects. This is getting a bit exhausting.

She could have rejected GTPM and given it to someone on platter again. At least Punit-Karan team could've celebrated another superhit.
