1. – Akshaye Khanna, Di Chahta Hai, India, 2001. Five actors: one role… Bollywood director Farhan Akhtar had difficulties finding his Siddharth, the most serious of three close buddies. He wrote it for the newly hot Hrithik Roshan. When he withdrew, Abhishek Bachchan took over, only to withdraw, as well. Farhan then considered Shiney but booked Aamir Khan – only to swop him at the last minute with Khanna, previously set as the fun-loving Akash.
