Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha postponed again, to hit theatres on Aug 11

The Hindi remake of Tom Hanks' Forrest Gump, was earlier scheduled to release on April 14 and it will now hit the theatres on August 11.

The film would have otherwise clashed with Yash's KGF: Chapter 2. However, the makers said they decided to postpone as they could not complete the film on time.

In a statement, the official Instagram page of Aamir Khan Productions thanked the makers of Adipurush for shifting their release date from August 11.

"This is to announce that our film, Laal Singh Chaddha, will not be releasing on 14th April as planned. This is because we are unable to complete the film in time. The film will now be releasing on 11 Aug 2022 in theatres worldwide. We would like to thank Mr Bhushan Kumar, T Series and Om Raut and the entire team of Adipurush from the bottom of our hearts," read an excerpt from the statement.

"We would like to thank them for being so helpful and understanding, and for shifting the release date of their much awaited, Adipurush, starring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan, so that Laal Singh Chaddha can come on 11 Aug 2022," the statement said.

Directed by Advait Chandan, Laal Singh Chaddha also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya.

The film is collaboratively being produced by Aamir Khan, Kiran Rao and Viacom 18 Motion Pictures.
