Why Lal Singh Chaddha Failed miserably at Box Office ?
Even the most jaded trolls would shed a tear at the tragedy of the scene where Mona Singh, who plays Aamir's on-screen mother, cuts off his hair to prevent the anti-Sikh rioters from targeting him. The movie even nods to L.K. Advani's ram Rath yatra without immediately passing judgement on politics. In reality, there is a lighter moment in this sequence when the kareena kapoor character, who subsequently becomes a gangster's moll a la monica Bedi, quips, "Iska naam bhi Lal hai (His name is also Lal)," to Aamir's Laal Singh Chaddha. They had both travelled to watch the yatra from Hindu college arrive in Delhi.
Aamir acknowledges the Swachh Bharat Initiative. The prime minister of india, who represents the sacred city in Parliament, is featured prominently in the scene where Laal Singh runs through Varanasi. Images of the beauty of india are shown as "Laal Singh Chaddha" comes to a close, including the glory of the ganges as viewed from varanasi and Jaisalmer's "night sky with diamonds" (obviously not in the way The Beatles intended it!). How can india be honoured without anyone launching into a speech of national pride?
