2nd May 2023: Aamir khan and Kareena kapoor starrer Lal Singh Chaddha was released on big screens on 11th august, 2022 but couldn’t do much well and failed to impress the audience. It even failed to collect ₹50 crores in it’s opening weekend. The film was boycotted by the audience way before it’s release after an old interview of Aamir khan was resurfaced, where he could be seen saying that his then wife Kiran rao , asked him to move out of India as the country is “growing intolerance”.
Anupam kher is very vocal about his views and thoughts and never shy away from sharing them with his viewers. He is always open to share his honest opinions.
In a recent interview, Anupam kher spoke about the failure of Lal Singh Chaddha on the box office and said “Lal Singh Chaddha was not a great film. If it would have been a great film, then no power would have stopped it. Aamir khan’s PK did really well. The point is you need to accept the truth.”
The Kashmir files actor further added “I am not for boycott trends, not at all but you can’t stop somebody from doing what they want to do. But if your product is good, it will find its audience. In fact, they will go with a vengeance. And the only way to kill this trend is to make brilliant work.”
He said this following the new boycott trend in Bollywood, where some people boycotts the work or movies of bollywood for both valid and invalid reasons. He added, “ I personally feel this trend will not affect the film. If your film is good, then it will work but if your film is bad, then it will affect it but not because of the trend.”
Lal Singh Chaddha was the Hindi remake of the Hollywood film ‘The Forest Grump’. The audience didn’t seemed to be happy with the remake of the classic movie and that became the reason for its flop.
