Aamir Khan’s ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ turned out to be a box office failure due to multiple controversies and especially due to the ‘Boycott Laal Singh Chaddha’ trend. The film could hardly make Rs 100 crore worth of sales at the ticket window. Hence, in order to compensate for the monetary loss, Aamir is keen on reducing his fee for his producers.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, Aamir is certain about his waiving his remuneration fee to make for the the producers’ loss after the box office debacle. A source shared with the portal, “If Aamir Khan decides to charge his acting fees, Viacom 18 Studios would have entailed losses of nearly Rs. 100 crores. However, that loss is something that Aamir Khan has decided to absorb himself. Now, the producer will lose nominal money.”
The source further added that Aamir gave four years to the film but has not made a single penny from it and thus his opportunity cost on Laal Singh Chaddha is upwards of Rs. 100 crores, but he has decided to take care of the losses taking the complete blame of failure on himself.
Helmed by Advait Chandan, Laal Singh Chaddha is the official remake of the hit Hollywood film, Forrest Gump, starrin Tom Hanks. The film also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Naga Chaitanya and Mona Singh in pivotal roles.
