2. 2 States

We all remember Arjun Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's hot chemistry in the Bollywood version of Chetan Bhagat's ‘2 States’, but did you know that PeeCee was apparently chosen to play Alia's role before Alia? The celebrity had to let this one go because of a busy schedule.

Pee Cee was an easy option for Madhur Bhandarkar's subsequent film following her outstanding performance in ‘Fashion’. However, if rumors are to be believed, she declined the film because she felt it would be redundant given the roles she had already tried out for.

4. Kick

The lead female role opposite Salman Khan was originally intended for the Quantico actress, but Priyanka withdrew from the project owing to conflicting dates. As a result, Jacqueline Fernandez was given the part.

5. Robot

Because she already had too much on her plate, Priyanka declined the opportunity to play the lead opposite superstar Rajnikanth in the film Robot. Aishwarya Rai was eventually cast in the role, and the film went on to become a box office sensation.

6. Sultan

This is the third Salman Khan movie Pee Cee had to reject after declining the first two. Anushka Sharma played the part in the end, and she went on to have great success.

7. Fanney Khan

Priyanka was previously given the lead part in this movie but declined it since she didn't care for the storyline too much. Aishwarya Rai then agreed to star in the movie.

8. Main Aur Mrs Khanna

Priyanka Chopra was first approached to act in this film, which also starred the Khan brothers Salman and Sohail Khan. According to rumours, the actress declined since she didn't enjoy the plot. Kareena Kapoor Khan later took on the same role.

9. Ghajini

The first Bollywood movie to join the 100 Crores Club, Ghajini was initially presented to PeeCee. Sadly, the worldwide sensation had to decline because of other obligations at the moment.

10. Race 2

Can you picture Pee Cee working for a Race franchise? Fans would have undoubtedly enjoyed that, but the actress turned down Deepika's part since she didn't have time.

If rumours are to be believed, Priyanka's disagreement with Kareena Kapoor Khan at the time may have contributed to her decision to decline because Saif Ali Khan, Kareena's husband, played the lead male role in the movie.
