Aamir Khan’s production house publish an apology on its official social media page for LSC failure
Aamir Khan’s production house shared an apology video on their social media page days after Laal Singh Chaddha release.
The video began with the words ‘Michami Dukkadam,’ which roughly translates to’ may all my wrongdoing be insignificant.’ As words appeared on a black screen, a voice could be heard saying, “All of us are human beings and we only make mistakes. Sometimes through our words and sometimes by our actions, at times we do it without knowing and at times when we are angry.”

It also added, “We also hurt people with our jokes and sometimes without talking. If I have hurt your feelings in any way ever then I ask for your forgiveness with my heart, promise and being.” The video ended with the song ‘Michami Dukkadam.’ The background music was the theme from actor Shah Rukh Khan’s film Kal Ho Na No.
However, now fans think that the profile must have been hacked and this is not Aamir. One person tweeted, “Hacked For Sure!! Didn’t expect this from Aamir…the voice ain’t his.” Another fan commented, “This account is hacked for sure.” “Hack ho gaya kya account (Has the account been hacked)?” asked another Twitter user. “As always, every year, Aamir says Micchaami Dukkadam, the Jain sorry. This time, voiced — by who?” asked another fan.
Before the release of Laal Singh Chaddha, there were calls for a boycott on social media. In response, Aamir Khan said, as quoted by news agency ANI, “That Boycott Bollywood… Boycott Aamir Khan… Boycott Laal Singh Chaddha… I feel sad also because a lot of people who are saying this in their hearts believe I am someone who doesn’t like India… In their hearts they believe that… And that’s quite untrue. I really love the country… That’s how I am. It is rather unfortunate if some people feel that way. I want to assure everyone that it’s not the case so please don’t boycott my films, please watch my films.”
In 2015, Aamir said in an interview, “Our country is very tolerant, but there are people who spread ill-will”. His wife, Kiran Rao, also made headlines when she said she considered leaving the country for the sake of their child’s safety. Twitter users responded to the interview by using hashtags such as #BoycottLaalSinghChaddha and #Boycottaamirkhan.
Laal Singh Chaddha, directed by Advait Chandan, is the official Hindi remake of the 1994 Hollywood classic Forrest Gump. This was Aamir’s first film in four years. Kareena Kapoor, Mona Singh, and Naga Chaitanya also starred in the film. The film bombed at the box office, earning 127 crore in the first 20 days. It was reported to have a budget of 180 crore.
