Kareena Kapoor said no to many movies like Ram Leela, Kal Ho Na Ho, etc, but did you know there was a film she desperately wanted to be part of, but couldn't? Read details.
 

Kareena Kapoor has some fantastic and blockbuster movies in her kitty, but did you know she several times said 'no' to many big-budget films?

However, there was a movie which Kareena desperately wanted to be part of, but she was replaced. Yes, the movie was Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas starring Aishwarya Rai, Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan.

Very few know that Bhansali had approached Kareena to be part of the film to play the role of Paro, which was later played by Aishwarya Rai. He reportedly replaced Bebo without informing her about it. And this marked the beginning of the biggest cold war between them. In an interview with Filmfare, Kareena had fired away, "Sanjay Leela Bhansali is a confused director. He is a person who does not stand by his word. He doesn't have any morals and principles in life. Tomorrow, even if he is the next Raj Kapoor or Guru Dutt, and my films don't do well and if I'm a flop actress, I will still not work with him ever." 

Now things are sorted between them, as in a recent interview with DNA, Kareena had expressed chances of doing a Bhansali movie, “Maybe a movie with Sanjay Leela Bhansali (laughs). But for that, Taimur has to be at least 10 years old because I can’t leave him before that. That’s the joke between Sanjay and me that we are star-crossed lovers (smiles).”
