The world-renowned Bollywood actor Aamir Khan is coming to Türkiye to finish filming of his last movie “Laal Singh Chaddha”, a remake of the 1994 U.S. movie Forrest Gump, as the filming in India was halted due to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Aamir Khan who discovered the technical infrastructure, advanced facilities and labour capacity in the field of cinema and the potential of Türkiye which is an open air film plato during his visit to Türkiye, decided to move the production of his new movie to Türkiye.   

Aamir Khan and the production team will make a visit to Türkiye in August with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism for the pre-production process of the movie, and the major part of the film shooting will be realized in Türkiye.

Aamir Khan will be both the producer and the leading actor of “Laal Singh Chaddha” which will be directed by Advait Chandan who is known for the movie Superstar.
