4- Rang De Basanti
Hrithik Roshan was offered the role of Karan/Bhagat Singh in the blockbuster movie ‘Rang De Basanti‘. However, Hrithik is very picky about his roles and the role offered to him, did not suit him. He was keen on playing the lead role of ‘DJ’ which was already signed by Aamir Khan.
5- Main Hoon Na
Hrithik was offered the role of Lucky by Farah Khan in ‘Main Hoon Na‘ but Hrithik rejected the offer. Had he accepted the role, we would have witnessed another brotherly bond between Shahrukh and Hrithik after Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001). Hrithik’s brother-in-law Zayed Khan played the role of Lucky and the movie was a huge success at the box office.
6- Swades
After Lagaan turning out to be a huge success in 2001, Ashutosh Gowariker offered Aamir Khan the lead role of his Swades but he rejected the offer. The same offer was later made to Hrithik Roshan but he declined it as well. However, both the actors rejected the offer. Later, Shahrukh Khan gave life to Mohan Bhargava’s role. Though the film wasn’t a big hit, it has gained a cult status over the years
