From #BoycottLaalSinghChaddha to 'growing intolerance' comment: 8 times Aamir Khan landed in controversies

Aamir Khan's soon-to-be-released Laal Singh Chaddha has come under a lot of controversies recently. The film is trending with the hashtags #boycottlaalsinghchadha and #boycottbollywood in response to Aamir's 2015 remark about 'growing intolerance.'

The film also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and is made under Aamir Khan's production. It is a remake of a 1994 Hollywood movie, Forrest Gump, featuring Tom Hanks in the lead role.

Reacting to the recent controversy, Aamir said that he loves his country and requested fans not to think otherwise and watch the movie. "I really love the country. That's how I am. It is rather unfortunate if some people feel that way. I want to assure everyone that it's not the case, so please don't boycott my films, please watch my films," he said.
