Starring Aamir Khan in the titular role, Laal Singh Chaddha is one of the highly awaited Bollywood films. Directed by Advait Chandan, the high-profile film was originally slated to enter theatres on Christmas 2020. However, the makers had to put its release on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic. Later, they announced Christmas 2021 as the new release date of the film before shifting it to 11th February, 2022.

The latest we hear is that Aamir Khan and his team of Laal Singh Chaddha have decided to postpone the film yet again. Buzz is strong that the film is now eyeing an April 14, 2022 release. 

Spilling more beans, an industry source tells a publication, "Laal Singh Chaddha is a high on VFX film, as the team is using ageing and de-ageing technology for Aamir Khan's character. The process is taking longer than expected as they are looking for nothing but perfection. There are multiple films which have used this trick, but Aamir is clear on providing a world class big screen experience. And hence, he has decided to move the film to April 14, 2022."

If the film indeed releases on April 14, it will lock horns with yet another hugely anticipated film KGF: Cheaper 2 at the box office. 

However, the source further adds, "They are figuring on multiple dates in the April - May window and April 14 is just one of the many in consideration. Another date in consideration is the Eid weekend - 28th April, 2022. Aamir is speaking to his friends, Sajid Nadiadwala (Heropanti 2) and Ajay Devgn (MayDay), to see if something can be worked upon. A final decision will be taken in a day or two. But yes, Laal Singh Chaddha is no longer releasing on February 11."

In addition to Aamir Khan, Laal Singh Chaddha also features Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role. The two actors are coming together after a decade. The film is the official adaptation of the Hollywood classic Forrest Gump (1994).
