Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor starrer Laal Singh Chaddha has been facing problems ever since the trailer of the movie was released earlier this year. Netizens have called for a boycott of the movie and #BoycottLaalSinghChaddha is often the most trending hashtag on social media. Despite all this, it has been reported that the movie has already collected over Rs. 1 crore in advance booking. Earlier, Kangana Ranaut had taken a dig and said that the entire negative press about the movie was created by mastermind Aamir Khan himself.
As per a report by Sacnikl.com report, Laal Singh Chaddha has collected 1.12 crore including block/without block seats. And Rs 25.7 lakhs have been received from block seats. For the unversed, block seats means one has to cinema halls for booking these seats.
Earlier in an interview with India Today, Aamir was asked if such negative campaigns make him upset, the actor said, “Yes, I feel sad. Also, I feel sad that some of the people who are saying this, in their heart, they believe that I am someone who doesn't like India. In their hearts they believe, but it is untrue. It is rather unfortunate that some people feel that way. That's not the case. Please don't boycott my film. Please watch my film.”
Laal Singh Chaddha will hit the theatres on August 11 and is a remake of the 1994 movie Forrest Gump starring Tom Hanks. It is going to have a tough fight with Akshay Kumar starrer Raksha Bandhan at the box office.
