The trailer for Laal Singh Chaddha, starring Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor, has been released, ending the wait. The film is a Hindi remake of the blockbuster Hollywood film Forrest Gump, directed by Advait Chandan. During the first innings of the IPL 2022 final, the trailer was unveiled. In the video, Aamir portrays Laal, a special-needs youngster, and Mona Singh plays his mother, who would go to any length to ensure that her son is treated fairly by society.
As the trailer progresses, we see an adult Laal (Aamir) jogging without the use of leg braces. He eventually enters the Indian Army, where he meets and befriends Naga Chaitanya’s character while also serving his country.
Aamir and Kareena Kapoor’s relationship is also depicted in the trailer, which is followed by heartbreak. He wants to marry Vimmy (Kareena), but she says “humara kuch nahi hosakta” to him.
Aamir is shown with a full beard and a turban near the end of the trailer. “Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates,” Tom Hanks says, like he did in Forrest Gump. “Maa kehti thi zindagi golgappe ki tarah hoti hai, pet bhale bharjawe, maan nahi bharta,” Laal continues.
We can already tell from the teaser that the movie will take you on a spiritual journey of struggles, hope, and love.
The trailer was also released on Aamir Khan Productions’ Instagram page. According to the post, “Discover the incredible journey of #LaalSinghChaddha, a simple man with a heart full of love, hope, and kindness. The #LaalSinghChaddhaTrailer is now out! On the 11th of August, the film will be released in theaters all around the world.”
Kareena Kapoor also shared the trailer with a different description on her Instagram account. She penned, “A pandemic, two lockdowns, and a baby later… one of my most special films… also because my Jeh baba is very much a part of it (in my tummy). Thank you Advait and Aamir for having not just me but the both of us in it… it’s something I will cherish forever Over to you guys, finally… #LaalSinghChaddha”
Laal Singh Chaddha, produced by Aamir Khan Productions, Viacom18 Studios, and Paramount Pictures, is set to hit theaters on August 11, 2022. Naga Chaitanya makes his Bollywood debut with this film.
