Illeana D’Cruz has earned immense love over the years with her work. However, while we know her from her brilliant work from Barfi, it’s not known to many that the actress was offered Bajrangi Bhaijaan. However, even prior to that, she was also offered the film Wanted in 2009, but she rejected it, as stated in India Today.
In an interview with PTI, she said, “I was offered a film of my own which was Wanted with Salman Khan. I was actually going to do it. I was happy that my first film would be with Salman.”
She added, “I remember I had exams on back then. So when Boney (Kapoor) sir asked me to do the photoshoot, I was like I am sorry, I have exams on. I can’t. I didn’t think I handled it well back then because I didn’t understand the gravity of the offer. For me, it was all about finishing my exams.”
She further said, “I was actually going to back out of Barfi! as well because I wasn’t sure. I took three months to sign it. There was something about the story. I don’t know if I will ever get to do a story like this. I decided on a whim to do it,”
