Tuesday Trivia: When Salman Khan Offered a Film to Shraddha Kapoor but She Said 'NO'

Shraddha was just 16 when Salman spotted in her acting potential.

Today, Shraddha Kapoor is one of the busiest actresses in B-town. After the massive success of her horror-comedy Stree, the talented lass will next be in trilingual film Saaho opposite South superstar Prabhas. Shraddha also has Saina Nehwal biopic and Chhichhore on her plate. With three big films lined up, the 31-year-old sure has a lot to look forward to in 2019. However, Shraddha's career has been a roller coaster ride as the actress did not arrive in Bollywood with a hit. Her debut film Teen Patti, which released in 2010 was a big dud and her next Luv Ka The End also didn't fare well at the box office. Varun Dhawan Welcomes Shraddha Kapoor On Board for Remo D'Souza's Dance Film.

Finally, it was Shraddha's third film Aashiqui 2 that catapulted her into the limelight. And since then there has been no looking back for her. But did you know that the Kapoor girl was first offered a film by Salman Khan? Yes, Shraddha was just 16 when Bhai saw her in a play and was super impressed with her acting skills and therefore wanted to cast her in his own film.

But Shraddha politely rejected the film as she only wanted to focus on her studies at the time. While we would love to see her act with Salman someday, for now, we are happy how Shraddha has paved her own path in the film industry after struggling in her initial years. Dabboo Ratnani 2019 New Year Calendar: Shraddha Kapoor Shares BTS Video as She Donned a Tribal Avatar for the Photoshoot.
