Shah Rukh Khan is a 'loser' in life who brings together a team of similar 'losers' in order to pull off the biggest heist of the year. Priyanka reportedly refused to play the Maharastrian dancer who teaches the rest of them to dance. Deepika Padukone stepped into the shoes for the character.

Race 2 (2013)

Heroine (2012)
Playing a Bollywood heroine onscreen comes with its own baggage. While Aishwarya Rai was the first choice for the film, but even after doing a photoshoot, she had to walkout of the project as she was expecting Aaradhya. Soon enough, director Madhur Bhandarkar's favourite Priyanka Chopra was approached, but she too wasn't too couldn't take up the role. Finally, Kareena Kapoor played the part with aplomb.
Robot (2010)
Not many actresses would say no to star opposite Rajinikanth in a big budget film. But Priyanka did exactly that. Her walking out of the film made way for Aishwarya Rai.
Ghajini (2008)
Aamir Khan is a hot shot businessman, who falls in love with a girl who puts out a complaint against an advertisement banner of his firm. Priyanka was offered the role of the chirpy and bubbly girl-next-door, but she didn't give her nod to the project. Soon enough, Asin walked in for the film, and with utmost finesse she played the part.
