It’s been over 48 hours I've not slept': Aamir Khan ahead of Laal Singh Chaddha release

I will be able to sleep only after 11 August…


Bollywood actor Aamir Khan is currently very busy promoting his upcoming family entertainer `Laal Singh Chaddha.`During a recent media interaction, the actor revealed that he has not been able to sleep for the past 48 hours because of his film. 

 

According to the statement,Aamir said,"I am very nervous right now, it's been 48 hours since I have not slept. I am not joking, I am not able to sleep. My brain is in overdrive, so I read books or play chess online. I will be able to sleep only after 11 August."

 

Further the actor said, I will finally sleep after 11, I think me and Advait (director of `Laal Singh Chadha`) will sleep peacefully and then when we wake up, the audience will tell us whether they liked the film or not. Will wake up and discover."

 

"I walk around in different theatres to watch the audience`s genuine reaction to the film. The audience doesn't know that I am present in the hall. For the first week, I visit different cities and different halls to get the unfiltered reaction of the audience from the projection window or from the side doors. It depends on the theatre, where the hiding spot is better. Through this, I get an unfiltered response from the audience. If the audience knows that I am present in the hall, then the reaction may be different, but I want to experience a natural response from the public."

 

Helmed by Advait Chandan, `Laal Singh Chaddha` is an official Hindi adaptation of the Academy Award-winning 1994 film `Forrest Gump` which had Tom Hanks in the lead role.

 

It is scheduled to release on August 11. Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya are also a part of the film.
