Rising actor Rohed Khan, originally from Austria and currently active in Bollywood, recently disclosed that he turned down a role in Netflix’s popular series ‘Squid Game’ in favor of joining the cast of ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’, starring Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff.
In a recent interview, Afghanistan-born Rohed Khan shared that although he had signed a contract for ‘Squid Game’, he had to withdraw from the project due to scheduling conflicts with ‘BMCM’.
Explaining his decision, Khan said, “I signed the contract for Squid Games but I chose BMCM over it.”
He added, “My sister advised me to go for Squid Games, but ultimately, everything is predestined.
The clash of dates prevented me from doing Squid Games.”
Directed and co-produced by renowned filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar, ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ featured a star-studded ensemble cast including Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Alaya F, Manushi Chhillar, Sonakshi Sinha, and Ronit Roy, with Khan portraying the role of a terrorist.
Although ‘BMCM’ received mixed reviews upon its release during Eid-ul-Fitr 2024, Khan’s presence added to the film’s ensemble.
Additionally, he has appeared in other films such as Diljit Dosanjh’s ‘Detective Sherdil’ and Kangana Ranaut’s ‘Tejas’.
Furthermore, Khan is set to appear in Ibrahim Ali Khan and Kajol’s upcoming film ‘Sarzameen’.
