Bollywood is unpredictable. You never know which movie will outshine others and which one will flop. Most actors try to be selective while doing movies but sometimes, they end up losing not only a chance to be a part of a hit movie but also put their career at risk.
These actors probably needed a lot of cold water for their burns, when the movies they rejected did well at the Box Office.
