Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha is racing for a spectacular release on August 11, 2022. The film directed by Advait Chandan is the official remake of Oscar-winning Hollywood film Forrest Gump featuring Tom Hanks in the lead role. Naga Chaitanya speaking to scribes, shared the secrets of his role and the film. He said he is playing the role of Balaraju from Bodipalem a village in Andhra Pradesh.
He revealed that the makers considered names like Balakrishna, Balaram for the role but later zeroed in on Balaraju Bodi. He said he was excited on hearing the name as his grandfather ANR made his debut on screen with the film titled Balaraju. Director Advait Chandan said Naga Chaitanya came prepared very well for the role and when he started acting and dubbing for the role even the most experienced both Indian actors were left shocked.
