Actor Naga Chaitanya, who is a well known name in the Telugu cinema, is all set to make his Bollywood debut with Aamir Khan's much anticipated film 'Laal Singh Chaddha'. In this Hindi adaptation of 'Forrest Gump', Naga will be essaying the character inspired by Bubba Buford from the original.
Recently, while talking to Hyderabad Times, Naga opened up about this upcoming project. He said, It’s a challenging character and I had a great time playing it. There have been minor tweaks done to the character to make it suitable for the Hindi audience but the essence remains the same. We shot in extreme weather conditions at Kargil for 45 days. It was a truly memorable experience.”
Talking about what tempted him to take up the project, the actor said, One of the reasons I said yes to this project is for the opportunity to share screen with Aamir and learn from him. He’s very meticulous on sets and it was great fun to work with him. We also had to work in tough conditions that men in uniform face. The production team had to create a path for us as there was no road near where we were shooting. It was a magical experience.
'Laal Singh Chaddha' also stars Kareena Kapoor and Mona Singh and it is set to release on 14th of April 2022.
