Dangal is often cited as Aamir Khan's most outstanding performance. It was ghajini for me. Ironically, the actor, like the main character in the Memento adaptation, has no idea what "acting" is. Also devastating beyond words. The actor who popularised method acting now plays Forrest Gump, a character made famous by tom Hanks from the movie of the same name, with grunts and more grunts. Laal Singh Chaddha, the official hindi remake of this hollywood classic, floats, much like that recognisable white feather that appears frequently in both movies, but each time it lands at Aamir's shoes, it is merely trod upon.

In contrast to Forrest, Laal is on his way to meet Rupa (Kareena Kapoor Khan, who played Jenny in the original) when we first meet him. The shot moves up from his scuffed-up shoes to his smiling face and bright eyes. The seat in front of him is occupied by a woman who lugs her suitcase in. Laal gives her a fleeting glance before opening a box of golgappas he is bringing for Rupa. Alagse paani. Finally, he groans. You realise right then and there that the following two to three hours will be rather taxing.

The movie has been declared as a wash out in South indian states and even in bollywood the movie doesn't ring a bell. It is a career disaster for aamir khan than Thugs of Hindostan so far.
