Naga Chaitanya starts shooting for Laal Singh Chaddha in Kargil

Actor Naga Chaitanya on Friday took to Twitter to share a picture from the sets of Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha. The actor joined the sets of the project, which is currently being shot in Ladakh, earlier this week.

Naga Chaitanya is replacing Vijay Sethupathi, who was originally signed to play the titular character’s close friend. This movie will mark Naga Chaitanya’s Hindi film debut.

Sharing the picture, the actor wrote: “Grateful”. He also mentioned Bala in a hashtag, which could be the name of his character.

Laal Singh Chaddha is the Indian adaptation of Tom Hanks’s Forrest Gump (1994). Naga Chaitanya will be seen playing the character of Benjamin Buford Blue aka Bubba.

The team, as per reports, is currently shooting some crucial war sequences in Ladakh. The current schedule will go on for 45 days.

Gearing up for release this December, Laal Singh Chaddha, which is being directed by Advait Chandan, also features Kareena Kapoor Khan.
