Director Advait Chandan took to Instagram to send an emotional tribute to his leading Actor Aamir Khan ahead of the trailer presentation of the much-anticipated film ‘Laal Singh Chaddha.’ Advait shared an unseen photo of Aamir and him from the set of the film, in which they can be seen looking at a monitor together. The actor appears to be wearing a military outfit. Advait hailed the Bollywood actor for being his mentor and guide throughout his career in the post. The director even refers to him as ‘Mahapurush.’
He wrote, ‘”Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” Aamir sir taught me how to fish and then he gave me a fishing net and now he has given me a fishing boat! Every now and then he gave me some free fish as well. “Today as our trailer is about to go live I am filled with gratitude for this man who has encouraged me on my lowest days, calmed me on my most anxious ones, all while allowing me to be his biggest troll on most days. You’re the best, sir… Lord of Catan, Grand Chess Master, Rubics Cube Meister, Life guru, a real directors actor, the best assistant director, the best continuity supervisor… The sharpest editor, the most generous producer!”
He ended his heartfelt post with a comedic twist, saying, “Sir, aap great, mahaan ho, swami ho, antaryaami ho… balki main toh kehta hoon sir, ke aap purush hi nahin… Mahapurush ho !!! Mahapurush…. 😉 Thank you sir, I owe you lots of fish. Advait.”
‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ is an official Hindi remake of the Tom Hanks-led Hollywood blockbuster ‘Forrest Gump.’ Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh, and Naga Chaitanya also star in the Hindi remake. On August 11, 2022, it will be released in theaters.
