One successful film can turn the fate of an actor. It’s something which happened to Anil Kapoor after the global success of Slumdog Millionaire . But the original choice for the character of quiz-master was Shahrukh Khan .
Yes, SRK turned down director Danny Boyle and the role later went to Anil Kapoor. However, Shahrukh has no regrets for not doing the film. He recently told a tabloid: “I know Danny felt bad about it”. But SRK was all praise for Anil Kapoor and admitted that Anil has done a fabulous job as the host of the game show.
For King Khan, last year was not so happening as he kept himself busy with cameo roles and only one release Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi . He declined 3 Idiots and the role went to Aamir Khan .
Shahrukh has in fact rejected some of the big films in the past. Lagaan and Lage Raho Munnabhai are some of them.
However, he doesn’t regret turning down these roles. “Everything isn’t made for me alone. God has given me enough. I’d better be happy and contented,” SRK is quoted as saying.
Incidentally, SRK seems always ready for a Yashraj film or a Karan Johar one.
Presently, he is committed to Johar’s My Name Is Khan and is also eagerly awaiting the release of his movie Billu Barber .
