Despite being father of two lovely girls in real, actor refused to play father of two kids for Meghna Gulzar’s next directorial venture. Re-invented after Om Shanti Om and Rock On, the actor might want to save his Rock image.

A source said, “Meghna was keen to cast Arjun in a very important role, but Arjun said he did not want to be cast as the father.”

However the producer of the film Savita Raj Hiremath confirmed this and said, “Arjun did turn down the role. We have two kids in the film aged ten and eight. Arjun did not want to play a father to two kids.”

She later added, “After Rok On!! may be he wants to maintain a certain image and we respect that. However we are talking to Arjun for some other films. We would love to have him on board for one of our forthcoming projects.”

“It is a film about relationships, I am now looking out for someone to play the father’s role. After that, I will cast the female lead. I should be ready with the cast within the next few weeks,” added Savita.
