Then he said, ‘I will call you’. And two days later, he told me that, ‘I was shooting with Salman (Khan) and he was telling me something about the movie’. Then I asked him, You didn’t call me. You called Salman?” Replying to which, the veteran actor said, “The character didn’t need someone with heart and brain, but needed someone for their physicality, and that’s why we went with Salman.”

Posting the video, Chiranjeevi wrote: “Fascinating how a chance meeting and a little chat with my dear friend Aamir Khan at Kyoto airport – Japan, few years ago led to me becoming a part of his dream project Laal Singh Chaddha. Thank You Aamir Khan for the exclusive preview at my home. Heartened by your warm warm gesture. Most of all, what a gem of a film you have made. Such a wonderful emotional journey.”

Your entry has energised everyone and the excitement has gone to the next level. Sharing the screen with you is an absolute joy. Your presence will no doubt give that magical “kick” to the audience.”
