Aamir Khan reveals how his friend Atul Kulkarni wrote the script for Laal Singh Chaddah after Aamir told him Forrest Gump was one of his favorite movies. An Indian adaptation of the Oscar-winning film, Aamir says 99 percent of Indians have never seen Forrest Gump, so the experience will be totally new for them.

Faced with a series of dead-end job interviews, Emily soon finds herself seduced by the quick cash and illicit thrills of black-market capitalism, and increasingly interested in her mentor Youcef.
