Aamir Khan’s Lal Singh Chadha To Feature 1984 Anti-Sikh Riots As An Important Plot Point
Aamir Khan’s next film, Lal Singh Chadha, which is going to be a remake of the Hollywood film Forrest Gump, will feature the 1984 anti-Sikh riots as an important plot point.
After
Thugs
Of
Hindostan,
Aamir
Khan
will
be
seen
on
the
big
screen
in
his
next
film
which
is
titled
Lal
Singh
Chadha.
The
movie
is
a
remake
of
the
1994
Hollywood
film,
The
Forrest
Gump.
Making
this
announcement
on
his
birthday,
Aamir
said
that
he
will
be
gaining
a
few
kilos
for
his
role
in
the
film.
While
not
much
has
been
revealed
about
the
content
of
the
film,
a
few
reports
which
were
doing
the
rounds
talked
about
the
movie
featuring
instances
from
the
Babri
Masjid
demolition
in
1992.
However,
it
turns
out
that
this
is
not
true;
the
movie
will
feature
other
political
events
from
history.
As
reported
by
Pinkvilla,
a
source
rubbished
the
reports
that
Aamir's
next,
Lal
Singh
Chadha
will
feature
instances
from
the1992
Babri
Masjid
demolition.
The
source
clarified
that
the
movie
will
instead
feature
the
1984
anti-Sikh
riots
as
an
important
plot
point.
After
the
failure
of
Thugs
Of
Hindostan,
Aamir
has
reportedly
been
very
particular
about
picking
his
next
film,
and
he
weighed
in
on
a
lot
before
deciding
to
go
with
Lal
Singh
Chadha.
The
director,
Advait
Chandan,
and
Aamir,
have
zeroed
in
on
four
looks
for
the
film.
"There
will
be
four
to
five
different
looks
for
each
part
of
the
time
frame.
Both
the
characters
age
with
time
and
Aamir
and
Advait
has
been
looking
at
the
clothes,
the
culture
and
the
looks
that
were
prevalent
for
every
era
and
redesigning
it
for
a
sardaar," further
revealed
the
source.
Lal
Singh
Chadha
will
star
Kareena
Kapoor
as
the
female
lead
opposite
Aamir.
The
film
is
to
go
on
floors
in
October,
and
hit
theatres
during
Christmas,
next
year.
