Mumbai: Aamir Khan took to social media to share the first look poster from Laal Singh Chaddha.
"Sat Sri Akaal ji, myself Laal...Laal Singh Chaddha.🙏," reads the caption alongside poster on Aamir's Twitter handle.
The actor will co-produce the Hindi adaptation along with Viacom18 Motion Pictures. Apparently, Aamir has lost 20 kilos to play the younger version of his title role of Laal Singh Chaddha.
The film is an adaptation of Forrest Gump, Robert Zemeckis' multiple Oscar-winning film which was released in 1994 and starred Tom Hanks with Robin Wright.
Forrest Gump is a 1994 American comedy-drama film based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Winston Groom. The story depicts several decades in the life of Forrest Gump (Hanks), a slow-witted but kind-hearted man from Alabama who witnesses and unwittingly influences several defining historical events in the 20th century in the US. The film was directed by Robert Zemeckis.
