Aamir recently unveiled the logo of Laal Singh Chaddha. The short clip had music composer Pritam’s soundtrack and showed a feather flying in the sky. He captioned the video: ''Kya pata hum mein hai kahani, ya hai kahaani mein hum (who knows if the story is in us or if we are in a story).''
The Veere Di Wedding actress recently revealed that she gave an audition for Laal Singh Chaddha. "Knowing the way that he (Aamir Khan) is, I think he wanted to be like 100 percent sure. So very randomly, out of the blue, I got a call from Aamir. 'I want you to hear this film, this and that and I am very excited about it.' So, it just happened very organically. I heard the script like just then the minute he called me and he was just like let's read some scenes. I want you to read some scenes. So, I was like yeah, I have never done anything like this. I thought like what the hell. I want to see myself if I want to do this or not and you know there is nothing wrong in that," she said in an interview.
Laal Singh Chaddha is the official Hindi remake of Tom Hanks's 1994 Hollywood film Forrest Gump. Directed by Advait Chandan of Secret Superstar fame, and written by Atul Kulkarni, the film will release on Christmas 2020.
