Aamir Khan’s latest movie Lall Singh Chaddha flops – could be removed from cinemas

Normally Aamir Khan’s movies are super-duper hits. However, his latest movie Lall Singh Chaddha is not doing well. Its performance at the box office has been miserable. Its business at the ticket counter fell by 85 per cent. It started off with a bang earning Rs 460 million in its first four days but lost its tempo. It dropped to Rs 18.5 million to Rs 21.5 million on its fifth day. Its total collection was Rs 480 million. This has come as a terrible setback and it is possible that LSC could be removed from cinemas. Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha expected to be removed from cinemas six days after premiere. The total collection was less than Aamir Khan’s last release c which also failed to do good business.

The media says LSC has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. LSC is an official remake of Forrest Gump, a film of Tom Hanks. The budget of Aamir’s film was Rs 1.8 billion. However, it did not appeal to the Indian audience. There were campaigns to boycott it because it shows disrespect to Hindu sentiments and the Indian army. This is a bit strange for a Bollywood man who gave movies like Sarfarosh (1999), Lagaan (2001), 3 Idiots (2009), PK (2014) Dangal (2016) etcetera,

John Abraham and Sonakshi Sinha shoot ‘Force 2’ in Ethnographic Museum Budapest

John Abraham and Sonakshi Sinha are shooting for the movie 'Force 2' at the Ethnographic Museum in Budapest – it was the same chosen by Hollywood actor Tom Hanks for 'Inferno' that was shot earlier this year.
This has been reported in indianexpress.com dated 16 September 2015.

‘Force 2’ is Vipul Shah’s next film and is a sequel to 2011 film ‘Force’.
It is revealed that the green room that is being used by John Abraham had been used by Tom Hanks and the Ethnographic Museum was the location where an important sequence of director Abhinay Deo’s movie is being filmed.
Incidentally, Hollywood moviemakers have selected Budapest as location for Hollywood films and movies like Die Hard (1988) and Transporter 3 (2008) and Bollywood is exploring this venue.
Since ‘Force 2’ is a hard-core action film, Budapest was an appropriate location for the movie because it is scenic and the makers hope that the beauty of the place will translate into profits.
