Shah Rukh Khan, the Badshah
of Bollywood has a global fan base that remains as loyal as ever. He is not
only loved for his acting, but also his charm, humble nature and witty humour.
It’s a dream for many people to get a chance to work with him or even meet him
once in their lifetime. Some get lucky, most people don’t. However, did you
know that there have been times when some Indian actresses refused to work with
King Khan? Well, let’s check out the list and the reason why they turned down
the offers.
Actresses who refused to
work with Shah Rukh Khan:
1. Karisma Kapoor
The timeless beauty, Karisma
Kapoor, surprisingly declined not just one but two movies opposite Shah Rukh
Khan. She was initially offered the role of Tina in Karan Johar’s classic ‘Kuch
Kuch Hota Hai,’ which eventually went to Rani Mukerji. Additionally, she turned
down ‘Asoka,’ which led to her sister Kareena Kapoor taking on the role.

Reports surfaced that
Samantha Ruth Prabhu, known for her role in ‘The Family Man 2,’ was offered a
role in Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Jawan.’ According to Bollywood Life, she was the
first choice before Nayanthara. However, Samantha turned down the offer as she
was focused on her family plans with Naga Chaitanya at that time.

3. Kangana Ranaut
Kangana Ranaut, known for
her fearless and outspoken persona, has also expressed her thoughts on working
with SRK. She once stated, “There is no longevity with working with Khans.
It’s the other way around. Where would it take me? Can it take me a notch
higher than where I already am? It cannot! What can it give me that I have
already not achieved? I can’t see a single thing… if you can tell me.”
