It so happened that Armaan was all set to star in Deewana (1992) opposite Divya Bharti. So much so he had even done a photo shoot for the poster of the film. However, at the last minute he backed out citing some reasons, and that's when Shah Rukh was cast in the role. Well, we all know what followed. Not only did the film propel Shah Rukh to overnight stardom but also he won major awards that year, thereby cementing his position in the film industry.

SRK even revealed that the Filmfare Award that he won for Deewana till date has the Armaan Kohli poster accompanying his and the film’s name. (A Filmfare trophy has the name of the actor, the film he has won the award for and the film’s poster). Yes, the makers of the movie didn't have budget enough to reshoot a new poster with Shah Rukh before the movie's release, and therefore decided to stick to the orginal.

Armaan Kohli is probably the unluckiest guy in Bollywood. What do you think folks? Leave your thoughts in the Comments section below.
