Rhea Chakraborty and Aamir Khan discussed their careers, families, and acting on her new show, Chapter 2. During the chat, Aamir revealed that they first met during a screen test for Laal Singh Chaddha, where Rhea auditioned for a role several years ago. Although she didn’t get the role, Aamir sent her a message complimenting her on her audition.
Rhea Chakraborty shares Aamir Khan’s surprising message after she was rejected for Laal Singh Chaddha; says, “Aamir Khan is saying I’m a good actor”
Aamir recalled their first meeting and stated that he still remembers it as a good screen test, despite the fact that Kareena Kapoor ended up with the lead role.
Rhea replied, “You had sent me a message. Which I found very, very surprising because I have auditioned for thousands of films, but it has never happened that when you are not getting the film when the producer, director or actor messages you and says, ‘Sorry, your audition was great, but the fact is we could not go with you.’ But you had done it, and I was really, really shocked. I showed that message to mom, dad, everyone and said, ‘See, I am a good actor. Aamir Khan is saying I’m a good actor.’”
Aamir added, “I feel that when you are struggling as an actor, because when I was new to the industry, I used to give a lot of auditions and get rejected everywhere. I know that feeling. So, I feel if I have not got that role, I should at least be told that I have not got that role. Otherwise, I’d be waiting and wondering whether I will get it or not. Then I would find out from the media that someone else has been cast.”
Laal Singh Chaddha, released in 2022, was the official Hindi remake of the Hollywood film Forrest Gump. Despite high expectations, it failed to captivate the audience and underperformed at the box office. Aamir Khan will next appear in the film Sitaare Zameen Par. He will also collaborate with Sunny Deol and filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi in the upcoming project Lahore, 1947, which will be produced by Aamir Khan Productions.
