Shah Rukh Khan rejected several films that later became huge hits, mainly due to scheduling conflicts, script or role issues, or personal reasons like health. Notable films he turned down include: - **Munna Bhai MBBS** (rejected due to surgery) which became a big hit starring Sanjay Dutt. - **Lagaan** (due to scheduling conflicts), which was nominated for an Oscar with Aamir Khan in the lead. - **Rang De Basanti** (due to date clashes), which earned critical acclaim. - **3 Idiots** (rejected due to script or role disagreements), later a massive success with Aamir Khan. - **Ek Tha Tiger** (rejected, reasons including scheduling or differences), which became a blockbuster with Salman Khan. - **Jodhaa Akbar** (timing issues), a period epic hit. - **Slumdog Millionaire** (turned down), which won international acclaim. These films showcase some major missed opportunities in Shah Rukh Khan's career that went on to achieve critical and commercial success with other stars[1][2][3][7]. Additional insight reveals that Shah Rukh sometimes declined roles because he felt the character lacked depth or significant screen presence, even if offered by prominent producers[4].
