Mona Singh speaks out about her role in ‘Laal Singh Chaddha.’
Mona Singh has finally spoken out in defence of her performance in Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha, which has been criticised since the film’s trailer was published.In the film, the 40-year-old actress plays a mother to 57-year-old Aamir, which became the main source of criticism.
Given the precedent from the original film Forrest Gump, when a 48-year-old Sally Field played a mother to a 38-year-old Tom Hanks, fans pointed out that Mona was inappropriate for the character.Fans referred to the age difference as “appropriate” at the time.
According to the Hindustan Times, Mona broke her silence and stated, “I didn’t want to talk about it previously since I wanted people to see the movie.” I’m also an actor.I’m not playing Aamir Khan’s mother; rather, I’m paying Laal’s mother. In the film, I age as Laal does.”
“It’s not an Aamir Khan biopic where he’s 57 and I’m 40 and playing a mother,” she noted. That would be incorrect.””To be honest, it never occurred to me that I might be doing something wrong.” “I was so certain that most people would not question the age disparity after seeing the video,” Mona explained.
After 2009’s 3 Idiots, Mona and Aamir reunited on film.Laal Singh Chaddha opened to a disappointing INR 12 crore on its first day at the box office on August 11.
