Shahid
Kapoor
Refused
Aamir
Khan's
Rang
De
Basanti
Recently
in
an
interview,
Shahid
Kapoor
opened
up
about
rejecting
the
Aamir
Khan
starrer
and
said,
"I
regret
not
doing
Rang
De
Basanti".
Now,
that's
quite
shocking,
isn't
it?
Shahid's
Loss
Was
Siddharth's
Gain
Reportedly,
Shahid
was
approached
to
play
the
role
of
Karan
Singhania.
After
the
actor
refused
to
take
it
up,
the
role
fell
into
Siddharth's
lap
and
the
rest
is
history.
While
Siddharth
absolutely
nailed
his
character
in
Rang
De
Basanti,
we
are
really
curious
to
know
how
Shahid
would
have
pulled
off
this
role!
Speaking
About
His
Upcoming
Film,
Kabir
Singh
Shahid
recently
opened
up
about
fans
calling
him
a
perfect
choice
to
play
the
lead
in
the
Hindi
remake
of
Arjun
Reddy.
The
actor
was
quoted
as
saying,
"I
never
feel
I'm
perfect
for
any
role.
When
you
have
to
play
a
character,
you
have
to
be
very
realistic
about
it,
you
have
to
know
your
own
strengths
and
weaknesses.
Every
actor
comes
with
his
own
strengths
and
weaknesses.
It
was
Vijay's
first
film
so
that
had
its
own
pros
and
cons.
It's
my
28th
or
29th
or
30th
film
which
comes
with
its
own
pros
and
cons.
So
we
are
in
different
places
and
we've
played
similar
characters.
Yes,
Sandeep
was
somebody
who
told
me
that
he
felt
I
was
right
for
the
character
and
to
me
that
is
the
most
important
thing.
The
film
maker
has
to
believe
that
the
actor
can
play
the
part."
Shahid
Doesn't
Like
Being
Told
This
Thing
He
further
added,
"I
don't
ever
think
that
I'm
perfect
for
any
character
but
at
the
same
time,
I
don't
think
I
am
wrong
for
any
character.
As
an
actor,
I
have
to
try
and
achieve
something
and
do
justice
to
something
that's
on
paper
and
bring
it
alive.
SO
I
don't
like
it
if
I
have
a
pre-conceived
notion
ki
yeh
toh
main
kar
lunga
because
that
makes
you
very
complacent
and
it's
over
confidence.
And
I
don't
like
being
told
that
I
can't
do
something
because
then
it
becomes
something
that
I
have
to
prove.
So
I
don't
think
in
either
direction
like
that."
