Bhai’s famous dialogue, ‘dil main aat hu, samajh main nahe’ is quite suitable for him in real life too. As nobody can understand why he rejected these blockbusters,
Baazigar
Salman Khan was the first choice to play the anti-hero in Abbas-Mastan’s blockbuster, Baazigar. But as fate would have it, he literally handed over the film to Shah Rukh Khan. The film not only established Shah Rukh as a star but also fetched him many Awards for his iconic performance.
Josh
So tempting was the character of Max Dias that every other actor in the film wanted to play it. Salman Khan cited date issues and the role once again went to Shah Rukh. For Sallu, it was not just a film missed but also an opportunity to salvage his then sinking career.
Kal Ho Na Ho
Kal Ho Na Ho is one of those rare films which touched millions of hearts across the world. But Salman Khan turned down the offer as he didn’t want to play the second fiddle to King Khan. Barring a cameo in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, we are yet to see bhai in a Karan Johar film.
Chak De! India
The Indian women hockey team in the film had 70 minutes to take the World Cup trophy home but so unfortunate it was of Sallu that he had no dates available. Chak De! India was a super hit not only at the box-office but also won critical acclaim bagging several awards. Shah Rukh’s portrayal of the patriotic coach is remembered as one of his finest performances till date.
Ghajini
Rumor has it that Aamir Khan himself recommended Salman Khan’s name after going through the script of Ghajini as he thought that the Dabangg Khan would be better suited for the role. Not much is known about how the film ultimately fell into Amir’s lap which went on to become the highest-grosser of the year
