Priyanka Chopra started her career from modelling and became Miss World in 2000. She started receiving movies, and soon she became one of the hottest Bollywood superstars. After some point in her career, PeeCee started getting offers from Hollywood as well. She worked in a show called Quantico and the Hollywood movie Baywatch. Though she has started working primarily in Hollywood now, she hasn't said 'goodbye' to her Bollywood career yet. She keeps coming back to India and tries hard to get films. However, Priyanka has always been choosy in her work and rejected quite a few movies in the past. These are some of the movies she decided not to be a part of.

Bharat

Earlier Priyanka was keen to do this film. She was selected as the lead actress, but Salman Khan’s reported first preference was Katrina Kaif for Bharat. Priyanka had backed off from the movie. She gave the reason for quitting the movie that Nick Jonas has proposed her and she wants to get married.

Cocktail

Priyanka was the first choice of the filmmakers for the movie, Cocktail. However, reportedly she had some doubts about the character and then the role went to Deepika.

2 States

Sometimes some things happen for good and its true. The lead actor for 2 States was offered to Shah Rukh Khan, and lead actress role was for Priyanka. But later both the actors turned down the movie, and the role was offered to Arjun Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Arjun and Alia did justice to their characters of college-kids, and also the audience loved their on-screen chemistry.

Salute
