Laal Singh Chaddha first reviews call Aamir Khan film ‘superior’ to Forrest Gump

Hindustan Times  

Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha is all set to mark his return to the silver screen after almost four years on Thursday. Laal Singh Chaddha stars Aamir Khan in the titular role with Kareena Kapoor playing his childhood love Rupa. The review of the film by the portal read: “If any Hollywood film lends itself to full-tilt Bollywood melodrama, it’s this one, but Laal Singh Chaddha measures its emotional beats tactically, deploying poignant punches sporadically throughout. Knowing the major plot points and overall arc of “Forrest Gump” does not dull this version’s impact in the slightest, as screenwriter Atul Kulkarni builds out a rich world for Laal that feels wholly independent from Forrest’s.” Slashfilm.com almost called Laal Singh Chaddha better than Tom Hanks' Forrest Gump in adaptation of Winston Groom's 1986 book of the same name. The review by the portal read: "Laal Singh Chaddha might still be as fitfully mawkish as "Gump" in its tendency toward brazen sentimentality, but is a film more deliberately rooted in philosophies of gentleness.
