8 Celebrities Who Refused To Take Part In A Film Because They Didn't Like Their Co-Stars
1. Kareena Kapoor – Emraan Hashmi
From the very beginning of her career, Kareena Kapoor has been very picky when it comes to her co-actors and she even declared that she would work merely with A-listers. Initially, she gave a nod for Karan Johar’s “Badtameez Dil” later on she walked out of the movie because she didn’t feel comfortable doing a lip-lock scene with ‘the serial kisser of Bollywood’. Well, only Kareena knows if she rejected the movie because of this reason or if Emraan Hashmi was not an A-lister according to her opinion.
2. Bipasha Basu – John Abraham
Is there anyobe who doesn’t know about the break-up of Bipasha Basu and John Abraham so there’s no surprise that they don’t want to share the screen. In fact when John was once questioned about featuring with Bipasha in a movie, he replied with, “Collaborating with Bipasha Basu is not even on my mind”. Not only John but Bipasha too had the same thought for obvious reasons.
3. Amitabh Bachchan – Kareena Kapoor
It’s not only that Bebo has rejected an actor, she has also been rejected by a megastar! Yes, we're talking about Amitabh Bachchan who refused to work in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s project “Black” because the maker's first choice for the female lead was Kareena Kapoor. However, as we cannot even imagine “Black” without the Shahenshah, so does SLB and finally Rani Mukerji was offered the female lead. When it comes to Big B's refusal, it's clear that the Bachchans and Kapoors don't get along after Abhishek's engagement to Karisma was called off.
4. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan – Salman Khan
Salman and Aishwarya’s affair and break-up made headlines at that time and the actress refused the proposal to portray the iconic role of Mastani in SLB’s “Bajirao Mastani” after learning that Salman, her ex might play the role of Bajirao. Obviously, sharing screen with him would have been awkward, so she declined the offer.
5. Katrina Kaif – Aditya Roy Kapur
Katrina and Aditya Roy Kapur share an amicable bond but she refused working with him as she felt that her career graph would fall. She already gave back-to-back failures – “Jagga Jasoos” and “Fitoor” and the latter of which she co-starred with Aditya. Not only that, but the actress refused to work in "Half Girlfriend," which starred Arjun Kapoor in the male lead, because she believed Arjun would appear younger than her, and she appeared older for a college-going girl.
6. Ranbir Kapoor – Sonakshi Sinha
Dabangg actress Sonakshi Sinha and Ranbir Kapoor were supposed to work together in a romantic comedy movie but the latter rejected the offer because he felt Sonakshi looked older than him and they would not make a good on-screen duo.
7. Ranveer Singh – Katrina Kaif
Baar Baar Dekho was at first offered to Ranveer Singh and while he had no personal grudge against Katrina, he did not want to make his ladylove Deepika upset so he politely rejected the film and his role later went to the kitty of Sidharth Malhotra. Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone didn't get along back then, and their feud was widely publicised.
8. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan – Emraan Hashmi
Who can forget Emraan Hashmi calling Aishwarya Rai Bachchan "plastic" on Koffee With Karan? Aish did not seem to get over it, and rumours circulated that she turned down "Baadshaho" after learning that Emraan Hashmi had replaced Diljit Dosanjh and would be her co-star.
