Rakesh Roshan is in the news these days, and a big reason for this is the 30th anniversary of his film Karan Arjun. On this special occasion, the film will be re-released on November 22. Rakesh Roshan is one of those filmmakers who has made a lot of headlines regarding the casting of his films.
Rakesh Roshan's film Karan Arjun was first offered to Ajay Devgan, but due to some personal reasons, Ajay refused to work in this film. However, later Rakesh offered him another film, but Ajay turned down that film as well. Recently, Rakesh Roshan shared some interesting things about Ajay Devgan. In a conversation, Rakesh revealed that Ajay Devgan was offered the role of Kaal in Krrish 3, but Ajay refused to play this character. Ajay had told Rakesh that he is a hero and it would be a bit difficult for him to play the role of a villain with another hero.
Rakesh Roshan recalls the conversation and says, "He told me that the story and screenplay is very good, but Rakesh ji, it will be a bit difficult for me, because I am also a hero. I would not like someone to kill me in the end and you will also not compromise." Rakesh respected Ajay's idea, but remained firm on the vision of his film. After this, Rakesh cast Vivek Oberoi in the film, who left a deep impression on the audience with his character in the film. The film also proved to be a blockbuster at the box office after its release.
