Mr. perfectionist – Aamir Khan has done it all, be it acting, direction, or producing or hosting a talk show in his thirty years of career.

He is all set for his next big and most-anticipated release Laal Singh Chaddha opposite Kareena Kapoor Khan, Aamir has a lot of responsibility on his shoulder when it comes to this film because the movie is a remake of the iconic film Forrest Gump featuring TOM HANKS  that took home six Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role (Tom Hanks) and Best Director (Robert Zemeckis).

Aamir khan recently appeared on the latest episode of Koffee With Karan where he revealed how it took him around 8-9 years to get the official rights of the movie for the Hindi adaptation.

Mr. perfectionist is known for taking a long period of time to create a film, he is very selective and picky in the kind of content he features in.

It is interesting to know that in the process of choosing films, he’s passed on some big projects to other actors which then changed their careers drastically. As it is said that ‘One man’s loss is another man’s gain’, The loss part may not be true for Aamir Khan, but the gain part is certainly true for Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.Here’s the list of  blockbuster films that Aamir Khan said ‘no’ to.

Aamir Khan rejected these  movies that proved to be a Blockbuster

Saajan 

Undoubtedly, Saajan is one of the highest-grossing movies of 1991, the movie is a romantic drama that had every single element which made it successful in terms of box office collection. No one can miss its poetic lyrics and heartfelt music that topped the charts for months even after the release.

The makers of the movie initially approached Aamir Khan and Salman Khan for the movie, however, Aamir turned down the role. Later, Sanjay Dutt was approached for the same and he instantly agreed to do the role. The  Khans were later featured in the iconic Andaz Apna Apna which was a blockbuster and people still love to watch that movie.

 Darr

Imagine what would be the scenario if it wasn’t Shah Rukh Khan as the psycho-obsessive lover but Aamir Khan instead delivering the popular dialogue, “Tum Aesa Mat Karo Ki..Ki..Ki..Kiran”? Well,  we know it’s pretty difficult to imagine anyone else doing the iconic role other than SRK which is considered one of his finest performances till now. As per reports, the first choice for this role was Ajay Devgn but he didn’t give any response to the maker, the movie was later offered to Aamir Khan. But When AK decided not to do the role, the movie went on to SRK, and SRK as a hero or villain outshines everyone in this film.

Hum Aapke Hai Koun

This iconic movie established Salman Khan as an actor. When it comes to the list of finest performances given by Salman, “Hum Aapke Hai Koun” still tops that list.  This masterpiece starring Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit collected Rs 69.75 crores during its release. With inflation-adjusted to the present day, the movie would  have collected  a whopping Rs 354.7 crore, per Hindustan Times.

Director Sooraj Barjatya had first approached Aamir for the role who didn’t find the script appealing and turned down the offer. The movie established Salman Khan’s career in the film industry.

Moreover,  you’ll be surprised to know that during his interview in Koffee with Karan when Aamir Khan was asked about which directors he wishes to work with, he instantly named SS Rajamoul and Sooraj Barjataya.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge

This is the very first movie that changed the definition of rom-com movies in Bollywood. The biggest hit of Shah Rukh Khan’s career was initially offering the role of Raj to Aamir who decided not to go ahead with the role. The movie turned out to be Shah Rukh Khan’s best and most-loved movie of all time. The same year, Aamir Khan’s Rangeela was also released. While both the movies performed well and both Khans received loved for their respective roles, the SRK and Kajol starrer literally created history.

DDLJ was placed 12th on the British Film Institute’s list of top Indian films of all time. It held the tag of Biggest Blockbusters Ever in Hindi Cinema for the longest time. The film received  a National Film Award and also set a record of winning 10 Filmfare Awards back to back. The movie also had a historic 1000-week run at Mumbai’s Maratha Mandir theater.

Mohabbatein

Just like DDLJ, Aditya Chopra again offered yet another hit love story to Aamir Khan who refused to do the role and turned it down. As everyone knows, Shah Rukh Khan went on to play the role of Raj and the movie turned out to be a massive hit at the box office.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan

There was a time when Salman Khan’s movies were not performing well at the box office and it was in 2015 when Salman Bhai bounced back with his heartfelt performance in Bajrangi Bhaijaan that was not only loved by his fans but also by the critics.

Reportedly , when Kabir Khan approached Aamir Khan for this film, the actor wanted certain changes in the movie that the maker didn’t agree with. Later, the movie went to Salman Khan created a history.

Dil To Pagal Hai

Another super hit from filmmaker and director Yash Chopra was initially offered to Aamir Khan who turned it down. The role later passed on to Shah Rukh Khan and the movie is loved by viewers till this date. The same year Aamir Khan was seen in another cult comedy Ishq, alongside Ajay Devgn, Kajol and Juhi Chawla.
