Bollywood Stars Who Refused A Film Because They Did Not Like Their Co-Star

With hundreds of films being released every year and more than a thousand being in pipeline, Bollywood as an industry is colossal. Once you break into this behemoth that churns out dreams every day, there is rarely a soul who goes without work, especially if you are in top rung.

Thus, it is not uncommon for superstars to throw tantrums about the nitty-gritty of the film in which the directors and producers want to cast them. From looks to costumes, to dialogues to creative opinions, stars have walked out of films or not signed them in the first place because they did not agree with certain aspects of the films. While being picky is not necessarily a bad thing, these stars took it a notch higher and refused film because they did not want to work with another popular actor of Bollywood. Read up to know the ones we are talking about.

Kareena Kapoor Refused To Work With Emraan Hashmi

From the very beginning of her career, Kareena has had a reputation for being picky about things and especially her co-stars. Early on in her career, Bebo announced that she would only do films if she cast opposite A-listers. We don’t know what the definition of A-lister according to her, but Emraan certainly did not fit the bill for this Begum. Kareena walked out of the film as she had no intention of kissing the serial-kisser of Bollywood and the film was shelved.

Ranbir Kapoor Refused To Work With Sonakshi Sinha

One of the most politically incorrect statements to be ever made by any Bollywood star was the one Ranbir made about Sonakshi Sinha. Reportedly, the Kapoor boy was offered a romantic comedy opposite Sonakshi Sinha. Ranbir liked the script but asked the producers to cast some other heroine opposite her as he thought that Sona looked too old in his comparison. When the producers were adamant about casting Sona in the project, Ranbir chose to walk out of the film. Not cool, Ranbir, not cool!

Ranveer Singh Refused To Work With Katrina Kaif

According to reports the director of Baar Baar Dekho,  Nitya Mehra wanted to make a film with Ranveer and Katrina Kaif in the lead.  However, the project did not work out as Ranveer refused to work with Katrina. Although Ranveer does not have any personal problems with Kat, his decision was due to his lady love Deepika’s strained relationship with Katrina Kaif that he took the decision. Things between the two leading ladies have not been fine ever since Ranbir Kapoor who was dating Deepika at the time cheated on her with Katrina.

Katrina Kaif Refused To Work With Aditya Roy Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor

While Bajirao of Bollywood refused to work with the Sheila of Bollywood, turns out Sheila also has her own set of filters. After two back to back flops like Fitoor and Jagga Jasoos, Katrina was being selective about her next projects when she was offered a film with Aditya Roy Kapoor, her co-star in Fitoor. Katrina turned down the offer as she did not want to work with Aditya after delivering a flop with him.

Katrina also turned down Half Girlfriend as she did not want to be cast opposite Arjun Kapoor in the film. It came as quite surprising as the two share a good camaraderie with each other off-screen. But Katrina turned down the offer as she thought that Arjun would look too young opposite her.
