In an interview with a local magazine, Khan elaborated on his decision, 'The script wasn't up to the mark. I genuinely didn't understand what I was reading. It seemed like a mishmash of ideas and lacked a coherent narrative.'

The actor went on to express his frustration with the overall state of Bollywood filmmaking, 'I think there's a tendency in Bollywood to prioritize star power and commercial appeal over good storytelling. While I respect the talent of many Bollywood actors, I'm not interested in being part of films that don't add anything meaningful to cinema.'

Khan's comments have sparked a heated debate on social media, with some criticizing his decision as shortsighted and others applauding his integrity. Some fans have expressed disappointment that they won't see him collaborate with Bollywood stars like Kaif.

However, Khan's stance has also resonated with many who share his concerns about the lack of originality and substance in mainstream Hindi cinema. They argue that actors like Khan have the right to be selective about their work and that the industry should strive to produce more compelling content.

The actor's rejection of Bollywood offers has reignited a discussion about the need for more cross-border collaborations between Pakistan and India. While political tensions have often hampered such partnerships, Khan's decision suggests that there may be a growing desire among artists to bridge the gap.

Whether or not Khan's rejection has a wider impact on future collaborations remains to be seen. However, his outspokenness has certainly sparked a conversation about the need for improved storytelling and artistic integrity in both  Pakistani and Bollywood cinema.
