Naga Chaitanya, who is all set to make his Bollywood debut with Laal Singh Chaddha, opened up about what he found most ‘intriguing’ about the film's concept in a new interview. Directed by Advait Chandan, the film is the Hindi adaptation of Tom Hanks' Hollywood classic Forrest Gump.
Laal Singh Chaddha is headlined by Aamir Khan, who co-stars with Kareena Kapoor in the movie. Naga Chaitanya, who features in a brief role in the film, said he's ‘excited’ about the project.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Chaitanya said he is eagerly looking forward to the film's release: “I'm very excited. I can't wait for you guys to catch it in the theatre. Whatever we've shot has come out so well. I'm really excited about it. The team is really excited about it. So, can't wait for you all to see it.”
Chaitanya elaborated on what ‘intrigued’ him the most when the script was read out to him: "The way they have adapted it to our Indian culture and our Indian sensibilities is what intrigued me the most when I heard the script. They've covered some really important events down our timeline."
In an interview last year, the south star said that Aamir himself gave him a call for the movie. “I got a call from Aamir Khan. After discussing the initial modalities of the script, I went to Mumbai for final discussions and was quickly on board. It was like magic! Aamir said he’d watched some of my performances and trailers of my film and was very impressed and that he felt I’d be apt for the role,” he told Deccan Chronicle.
