바카라˜Laal Singh Chaddha바카라™, which starred Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya, failed to perform at the box office when it was released in August this year. 

The film, which was a remake of 1994 Tom Hanks바카라™ starrer 바카라˜Forrest Gump바카라™, managed to earn only Rs 58.73 crore. It happened so because many people boycotted it on social media and trended an old interview of Aamir, in which the actor had talked about the 바카라œgrowing intolerance바카라 in the country. However, when the film was released on Netflix, it found a new lease of life. It got appreciated by a certain section of the audience.

In fact, Manav Vij, who essayed the role of a Pakistani soldier, found people apologising to him on Twitter for not watching 바카라˜Laal Singh Chaddha바카라™ in the cinema halls. But Manav is of the opinion that instead of apologies, people should send money to Aamir Khan바카라™s production house because of the loss that it incurred due to the no-show in the theatres by the same set of people.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Speaking to Mid-Day while promoting his latest web show 바카라˜Tanaav바카라™, Manav said, 바카라œMany people also apologised to me on Twitter, saying they didn바카라™t watch Laal Singh Chaddha in theatres following the boycott trend. But they loved it when they watched it on Netflix.바카라 He even suggested that these people 바카라œshould have transferred Rs 500 to Aamir Khan Productions바카라™ account. The producers are at a loss because of your (people바카라™s) stupidity.바카라

The story of 바카라˜Laal Singh Chaddha바카라™ revolves around Aamir바카라™s character Laal, who is depicted to be a man with a low IQ. He serves in the Indian army during the 1999 India-Pakistan war and ends up saving the life of Mohammed, played by Manav, unaware that he is a Pakistani soldier. The two become friends later. The film was helmed by Advait Chandan.
