Saif being offered DDLJ first is a myth and a misconception. Both SRK and Aditya Chopra have said that SRK was the first choice and was narrated the story as well. But since Shah was not committing and didn't seem interested, Aditya then went to Saif.

Uggh...Shah has rejected some of the best movies. There's so many more to be added to that list. The most recent one being Bhaag Mikha Bhaag.

Salman was actually interested to do baazigar but when Abbas-mastan approached him there was no mother angle and the character was suppose to be a complete villain not an anti-hero.He himself said it in an interview.
