Shah Rukh refused to do Aamir's '3 Idiots'

Producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra says that Shah Rukh Khan has always been his first choice for most of his films be it '3 Idiots', 'Munnabhai MBBS', or the yet-to-be released 'Ferrari Ki Sawari'.

Talking to reports Vinod Chopra said that Shah Rukh was offered '3 Idiots', 'Ferrari Ki Sawari', 'Munnabhai' and other films.

Shah Rukh had backed out of 'Munnabhai MBBS' because of back trouble and could not do '3 Idiots' because of date issues.

If Chopra had his way, SRK would have been the Munnabhai of 'Munnabhai MBBS' and Sanjay Dutt would have played the small role of Zaheer, a cancer patient.

But now that all tese movies are the filmmaker feels that Sanjay Dutt who replaced SRK as Munnabhai is perfect and similarly Sharman fits the central role in 'Ferrari Ki Sawari'.

Now that Vinod Chopra had first offered almost all his hit movies to Shah Rukh which he refused, will he continue the trend hoping the star will refuse them again and the movies go on to become a hit?
