Birthday Special: Did you know? Shraddha Kapoor had rejected a film with Salman Khan at the age of 16

It's Shraddha Kapoor's birthday today. The actress, who turns 31-years old, made her Bollywood debut as a protagonist with the 2011 film Luv Ka The End, though she had made a brief appearance in the 2010 film Teen Patti, has now created a steady fan following of her own. The actress shot to fame with her character of Aarohi in the 2013 film Aashiqui 2 with Aditya Roy Kapur. 

Shraddha is also one of those actors who've turned singers in Bollywood. She has created her own identity among her fans. Though, she has films like Aashiqui 2, Haider, Ek Villian, ABCD 2, Baaghi, Half Girlfriend and others in her kitty, not many know that she had once rejected a film with Salman Khan. 

Shraddha had got the offer of working with Salman at the age of 16 years from the actor himself, but she had declined the offer. What actually happened was that Shraddha was doing a play in her school back when she was 16. 

It was then that Salman happened to spot her talent and got mighty impressed with her. The actor went on to offer her a film with himself then and there. Turns out that Shraddha wanted to concentrate only on her studies at that point of time so she politely rejected the offer. 

Now Shraddha Kapoor is a popular actress in the industry. She will soon be seen with Baahubali actor Prabhas in Saaho. The actress is currently shooting for her next titled Batti Gul Meter Chalu with Shahid Kapoor. 

Here's wishing Shraddha a very happy birthday!
