Vijay Sethupathi was to work in Lal Singh Chaddha
Vijay Sethupathi, in a conversation with Mashable, revealed that he was going to play an important role in the Aamir Khan starrer film Laal Singh Chaddha. But this could not happen. "I had to do Laal Singh Chaddha. So I met the director in the afternoon and when I was leaving, Aamir sir called me and said, 'Can we meet?' I went to his house. So when I first came to Mumbai, I went to a star's house and I had coffee and cigarettes with him. After that Aamir sir came to drop me to the airport," said Vijay Sethupathi.
Laal Singh Chaddha was a flop at the box office
Laal Singh Chaddha, the Hindi adaptation of Forrest Gump, was directed by Advait Chandan. Apart from Aamir Khan, Naga Chaitanya, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Mona Singh were also seen in important roles in the film. There was a lot of discussion about the film, but it did not do well at the box office. This film by Aamir Khan, released in 2022, proved to be a flop.
