New Delhi: The 'Boycott Laal Singh Chaddha' trend has again revived with more spirit on microblogging site Twitter. Netizens are fanning flames and sharing every old interview snippet of the actor and Kareena Kapoor Khan to make it sound like Aamir Khan 'does not like India'. So much has been the buzz around this trend, that channels have been broadcasting debates about the same with a panel to discuss the 'Boycott Laal Singh Chadda' trend at length. Now, Aamir Khan who is currently promoting his upcoming film has been answering questions about the trend and the various controversies surrounding it.

On Tuesday, a comparison between Aamir's performance in 'PK' and 'Laal Singh Chaddha' began to be drawn. Aamir has responded to these speculations by asking audiences to first watch 'Laal...' and judge for themselves. 

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Aamir answered this question. He said, “I think you all should watch the film and then decide. I will tell you why, because there is one similarity in Laal and PK and that is innocence. Laal is innocent and so is PK. This is a very strong quality that both of them possess. So, in the trailer, you might not be able to see the difference which you will see in the whole performance. Toh jab aap Laal ka poora performance dekhenge toh I am hoping ki dono characters aapko bohot innocent lagein but woh aapko alag kirdar lagega. Woh aapko PK nahi lagega, mere hisab se. (When you will watch the film, I am hoping that you spot the same innocence in PK and Laal but you realise they are two completely different characters. As per me, you won't feel it's PK)."

Directed by Advait Chandan, Laal Singh Chaddha is scheduled to release on August 11. The film is an official Hindi adaptation of the Academy Award-winning 1994 film 'Forrest Gump'.

Kareena Kapoor, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya are also a part of 'Laal Singh Chaddha'. The film will clash with Akshay Kumar starrer 'Rakshabandhan'.
