Music
composer
and
rapper
Badshah
has
delivered
several
hit
independent
and
Bollywood
songs
in
his
career
spanning
more
than
a
decade.
In
2019,
he
forayed
into
acting
with
Sonakshi
Sinha
starrer

Khandani
Shafakhana
in
which
he
essayed
the
role
of
a
rap
star,
Gabru
Ghatak.

However,
do
you
folks
know
that
Badshah
was
also
offered
two
roles
in
projects
which
eventually
turned
out
to
be
successful?
In
the
recent
episode
of
Amazon
miniTv’s
weekly
courtroom
comedy
reality
show

Case
Toh
Banta
Hai,
the
music
composer
revealed
that
he
was
offered
a
role
in
Karan
Johar’s
anthology

Lust
Stories.
However,
he
turned
down
that
part
and
it
was
eventually
bagged
by
Vicky
Kaushal.

Badshah
revealed
that
he
was
also
offered
Diljit
Dosanjh’s
role
in
Akshay
Kumar-Kareena
Kapoor
Khan’s
2019
film.
He
said
on
the
show
that
when
he
decided
to
play
the
role
of
Gabru
Ghaatak
in
Khandani
Shafakhana,
his
acting
career
failed
to
take
off.

Badshah
told
Kushal
Kapila,
who
is
seen
as
the
judge
in
this
courtroom
comedy
show,

“Mujhe
sabse
pehli
film
offer
hui
thi
Lust
Stories,
uss
mai
Vicky
Kaushal
ka
role
mujhe
offer
hua
tha
jismai
woh
apni
wife
ko
satisfy
nahi
kar
pata
hai,
toh
maine
woh
turn
down
kar
diya
(The
first
film,
which
was
offered
to
me
was
Lust
Stories,
in
which
I
was
to
play
Vicky
Kaushal’s
role,
who
cannot
satisfy
his
wife.
I
turned
that
down).”

He
continued,

“Aur
dusra
role
mujhe
offer
hua
Good
Newwz
film
aai
thi,
jis
mai
Diljit
Paji
ka
role
offer
hua
tha
jismai
woh
bache
nahi
paida
kar
pate
toh
woh
bhi
maine
decline
kar
di,
toh
teesra
role
mujhe
yeh
offer
hua,
toh
mujhe
laga
saala
chehre
pai
kuch
likha
hai
kya?
Toh
maine
yeh
jinx
mitane
ke
liye
film
ki,
mujhe
kya
pata
mera
(acting)
career
hi
mit
jayega
(The
second
role
was
that
of
Diljit
in

Good
Newwz,
where
he
can’t
conceive
a
child.
I
turned
that
down
also.
So,
when
I
got
the
third
role,
I
thought
may
be
my
face
is
like
that
and
I
took
it
up
to
break
the
jinx.
Little
did
I
know
that
my
acting
career
would
be
wiped
out
after
that
role).”
