'Laal Singh Chaddha' off to a disappointing start at box office

Amir Khan's long-awaited film Laal Singh Chaddha failed to live up to the hype.

As per a report by Aamir Khan Productions, the film has only earned INR 27 crore in the first three days of its theatrical release.

The official Hindi remake of iconic Tom Hanks-starrer Forrest Gump, Laal Singh Chaddha could not be a knight in the shining armour for Bollywood films.

The film had much buzz among the audience by the end of May; however, the disappointing trailer and several controversies around the film have been some of the main reasons for its bad business at the box office.

The much-anticipated film is expected to fold much under INR 100 crore mark and the makers will have to bear losses on the mega project.
