Aamir Khan To Reunite With Advait Chandan For Hindi Remake Of Tom Hanks' Forrest Gump?
Aamir Khan has apparently bought the Hindi remake rights of Tom Hanks' Forrest Gump and will be teaming up with his 'Secret Superstar' director Advait Chandan on this project.
Tom
Hanks'
Oscar-winning
film,
'Forrest
Gump'
is
considered
to
be
one
of
the
most
iconic
films
of
all
times.
Who
can
forget
the
actor's
memorable
dialogue
from
that
flick,
"My
mama
always
said,
life
is
like
a
box
of
chocolates.
You
never
know
what
you're
gonna
get." Well
folks,
word
is
that
this
box-office
hit
might
be
remade
it
in
Bollywood
soon.
As
per
a
report
in
Pinkvilla,
Aamir
Khan
has
apparently
bought
the
Hindi
remake
rights
of
this
Tom
Hanks
starrer
and
will
be
teaming
up
with
his
'Secret
Superstar'
director
Advait
Chandan
on
this
project.
The
superstar's
last
release,
Thugs
Of
Hindostan
failed
to
woo
the
audience
and
opened
to
not-so
favorable
reviews.
The
report
states
that
Aamir
who
was
supposed
to
begin
work
on
Mahabharata
and
Mogul
has
kept
the
projects
aside
to
begin
work
on
this
remake.
During
the
promotions
of
Thugs
Of
Hindostan
when
Aamir
was
asked
about
his
forthcoming
projects,
the
actor
had
declined
that
he
had
signed
any.
However,
this
latest
report
is
leaving
us
curious
now.
