I had an hour and half journey in the car every day and we shot late nights mostly,” Kareena said.

In her interviews last year, Kareena had shared that Aamir asked her to audition for her role in the movie. Talking to Rajeev Masand, Kareena said Aamir wanted to be sure about it. “Because knowing the way that he is, I think he wanted to be like 100% sure. So very randomly, out of the blue, I got a call from Aamir. ‘I want you to hear this film, this and that and I am very excited about it.’ So it just happened very organically. I heard the script like just then the minute he called me and he was just like let’s read some scenes. I want you to read some scenes. So I was like yeah, I have never done something like this. I thought like what the hell. I want to see myself if I want to do this or not and you know there is nothing wrong in that,” she said.
Laal Singh Chaddha is remake of Hollywood hit Forrest Gump. It will release in December this year.
