Ever since it was announced that Aamir Khan is making a Hindi remake of Tom Hanks’ Forrest Gump, cinephiles were eagerly waiting for the film’s release. However, the movie failed to work at the box office. Also starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Laal Singh Chaddha made it to the headlines due to the boycott trends as well.
On September 1, an apology video saying ‘michami dukkadam‘, meaning ‘may all the evil that has been done be in vain’, was posted on Aamir Khan Productions’ Instagram handle. Reacting to the clip, netizens said that the account has been hacked.
The apology shared in the video in Hindi can be roughly translated to: “We are all humans and we only make mistakes. Sometimes through our words, sometimes with our actions, sometimes unknowingly, sometimes out of anger, sometimes jokingly, and sometimes by not talking. If I have ever hurt you in any way, I request your forgiveness.”
Shah Rukh Khan’s Kal Ho Naa Ho theme played in the backdrop of the clip. A voice read out the words appearing on the screen, though it was Aamir’s
Laal Singh Chaddha has been directed by Advait Chandan from a screenplay by Eric Roth and Atul Kulkarni. The movie has been produced by Aamir Khan Productions and Viacom18 Studios. It was reportedly made on a budget of Rs 180 crore
