He asked me my favourite film and I told him, Forrest Gump. Ten days later, he told me that I have written a script. He pursued me for a few months, I finally heard it and I was blown away.” We all want such friends, don’t we? Well, Atul Kulkarni is a wonderful actor and this will be his debut as a writer.

Lal Singh Chaddha will be directed by Advait Chandan and co-produced by Aamir Khan Productions and Viacom 18 Motion Pictures. Slated to release next year, the film will be shot in Delhi, Himachal and in other parts of North India.
