Explanation

Danny Denzongpa was indeed the first choice for the iconic villain role of Gabbar Singh in Sholay (1975). However, he had to decline the offer because he was already committed to another film (Feroz Khan's 'Dharmatma'). Amjad Khan was then cast as Gabbar and became legendary in that role. Sanjeev Kumar and Praan were not considered for this specific villain role.
