1) Hrithik Roshan
The film was originally supposed to be made by the Roshans and Hrithik was supposed to play the lead. Rakesh Roshan loved the film so much that he wanted to buy it off Vijayendra Prasad, who wrote the script. But since the deal could not work out, the script was passed on to Kabir Khan!
2) Allu Arjun
A big superstar down south, Allu was offered the lead role. Unfortunately, due to prior commitments, Allu could not sign on.
3) Puneeth Rajkumar
Puneeth Rajkumar is a huge star of the Kannada film industry. He is an actor, singer as well as a TV presenter. Unfortunately, none of his skills could be showcased in Bajrangi Bhaijaan because he rejected the film.
4) Rajnikanth
You read that right. Thalaiva himself was offered the lead, but God knows why, he turned it down! We don’t see Salman complaining though!
5) Aamir Khan
Apparently, Aamir loved the script a lot and he was really keen on being a part of the project. But their dates could not match and hence the role ultimately was passed on to Salman Khan. Those tears that Aamir had at the screening of Bajrangi Bhaijaan, were tears of regret, we say!
And now that the film’s turned out to be such a heart-warming blockbuster, we cannot imagine anyone else in the lead except our very own Bhai! No regrets that the others rejected the film.
