Hrithik Roshan was the first choice for Rang De Basanti and all possible pressure was brought upon him to persuade him to accept the film.

But Hrithik actually did turn down the venture directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra .

Even Aamir Khan made a trip to Hrithik to get him to sign on. But Hrithik stuck to his guns, and refused.

And if you are wondering that why Aamir was pursuing Hrithik for the role let us tell you that Hrithik wasn't being offered Aamir's role.

Hrithik was being offered the role of Karan ( Anupam Kher 's son in the film) , eventually played by Siddharth .

Of course, Hrithik's firmness worked wonders for Siddharth, who got the rare opportunity to showcase his acting prowess in his very first Hindi film.

Earlier, the junior Roshan had refused to do the role of the younger brother of Shah Rukh Khan in Main Hoon Na , which was eventually done by his brother-in-law Zayed Khan .

Hrithik's next scheduled releases in the pipeline are Krrish , Dhoom 2 and Akbar Jodha .
