 "Mona Singh reveals Aamir Khan hosted a party afer Laal Singh Chaddha flopped at the box office: 'What if the film didn’t...'")
Actress Mona Singh, who shared screen space with Aamir Khan in two films, 3 Idiots and Laal Singh Chaddha, described Mr Perfectionist as ‘very intelligent’ and said she is very lucky that she has got the opportunity to work with him twice.
“I don’t call him when I’m troubled or ask him what to do, but when we are on the sets, I am very inquisitive and keep asking him bizarre questions. ‘Why is this important in the script? Why is something this way?’ He is so intelligent; he knows it all. He’s clear and sorted. I really respect him a lot. I feel I’m one of those lucky actors who got the chance to work with Aamir twice in two decades. I feel lucky and fortunate,” said the actress while talking to Siddharth Kannan while explaining her bond with the Thugs of Hindostan star.
When questioned about _Laal Singh Chaddha_ ’s dismal performance at the box office, Mona replied, “Of course, it hurt,” adding “Dukh toh hua. Humne itne din shoot kiya, itni acchi bonding huyi, itni acchi picture bani, theatres mein woh response nahin mila (It definitely hurt. We shot for so long, bonded well, and made a beautiful film, but it didn’t get the desired response from the theater audience). We were all a bit broken. It saw new life on Netflix. Suddenly, people started talking about the movie, and there was so much appreciation and love pouring in. I knew there was disappointment in theaters, but in hindsight, I believe it will achieve cult status in the years to come.”
The actress also revealed that Aamir Khan hosted a party after the film flopped to celebrate the efforts and hard work of the team. “Aamir sir is the only actor who could throw a party after a flop to honour everyone’s efforts. He said, ‘What if the film didn’t work? It shouldn’t stop us from celebrating.’ He invited everyone from the crew to the actors. He took responsibility for the film’s failure, and that’s why I have immense love for him. Everyone was happy because it was doing well on Netflix, and people started forming Facebook groups asking why it didn’t succeed in theaters,” said Mona.
