Baazigar: Salman Khan was also offered Baazigar. In an interview with Indian Express, Salman had revealed, “When Abbas Mustan came to me with the script, I asked my dad for his inputs. He felt that since it’s a story of a negative character they should add an angle of mother in it. They didn’t agree. When I said no to the film, they went to Shah Rukh Khan, then they added that mother angle (Laughs). But I don’t regret it at all.”

Kal Ho Naa Ho: Kal Ho Naa Ho starred Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan, and Preity Zinta. If reports are to be believed, Saif’s role was first offered to Salman but he turned it down.

Ghajini: Aamir Khan delivered a memorable performance in Ghajini. Reportedly, Salman was first offered the role of Sanjay Singhania. However, he rejected the film.

Josh: Josh starred Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Chandrachur Singh. Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya played brother and sister in the film. Reportedly, Salman Khan was offered the film. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aishwarya Rai had revealed, “I think the cast was meant to be Aamir (Khan) and Salman (Khan) at one point and eventually it became Shah Rukh (Khan) and I think Aamir (Khan) at some point was to play Chandrachur’s (Singh) role. So the cast kept changing at different points of time but Shirley remained Shirley. So I had said yes to Mansoor (Khan).”
