As
Aamir
Khan
gears
up
for
the
release
of
Laal
Singh
Chaddha,
the
actor
opens
up
about
Shah
Rukh
Khan's
cameo
in
the
film.
Yes,
you
read
it
right!
In
his
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
journalist,
Aamir
Khan
confirmed
Shah
Rukh's
special
appearance
in
the
film
and
said
that
it
was
really
sweet
of
him
to
say
yes
to
his
request.
In
an
interview
with
a
journalist
Alexandra,
Aamir
said,
"Shah
Rukh
is
a
friend.
I
told
him
that
'I
needed
someone
who
can
represent
what
Elvis
Presley
represented
in
America.
I
need
the
biggest
iconic
star
of
India,
which
is
why
I
am
coming
to
you.
He
was
really
sweet
and
he
said,
'yes'."
Earlier,
during
the
promotions
of
the
film,
Aamir's
co-star
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan
had
also
confirmed
Shah
Rukh's
cameo
in
the
film.
In
an
interview
with
News18,
when
Kareena
was
asked
if
the
rumours
about
Shah
Rukh
&
Salman
Khan's
cameos
in
the
film
are
true,
she
replied,
"I
don't
know
about
Salman
but
I
think
Shah
Rukh
is
there
but
not
Salman."
Coming
back
to
Laal
Singh
Chaddha,
the
film
is
a
Hindi
remake
of
the
1994
Hollywood
classic
Forrest
Gump
starring
Tom
Hanks.
Apart
from
Kareena
and
Aamir,
the
film
also
stars
Mona
Singh
and
Naga
Chaitanya
in
pivotal
roles.
While
Mona
will
portray
the
role
of
Aamir's
mother,
Naga
will
be
seen
as
Aamir's
friend
in
the
film.
Kareena,
on
the
other
hand,
will
play
Aamir's
love
interest.
Directed
by
Advait
Chandan,
the
film
will
arrive
in
theatres
on
August
11,
2022.
