Kareena Kapoor Khan reveals how she bagged Lal Singh Chaddha

Kareena Kapoor Khan has worked with Aamir Khan in 3 Idiots and Talaash. The two stars are all set to be back on the big screen after a gap of eight years in Lal Singh Chaddha. Their fans are super excited to watch them on the silver screen together.

Recently, in an interview with the journalist, Rajeev Masand, Kareena revealed how she bagged the role in Lal Singh Chaddha. She stated, "Knowing the way Aamir is, I think he wanted to be like 100 percent 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 anything 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."


"I think the times are changing and if I don't evolve and I behave like I am some diva or this is beyond me... And Saif (her actor husband Saif Ali Khan) was the one who told me, 'What's wrong with you? Even an Al Pacino would test for the part. There is nothing wrong, we all have to be sure as actors and artists,'" the actress added.

Lal Singh Chaddha is the official remake of 1994 release Forrest Gump which starred Tom Hanks in the lead role. While in the Hollywood film the female lead's character wasn’t a strong one, let’s see if, in Lal Singh Chaddha, Kareena will be having a meaty role or not.

Directed by Advait Chandan, Lal Singh Chaddha is slated to release on Christmas 2020.

Cardi B exposes Offset’s affair with AriTheDon in leaked texts

Cardi B and Offset’s already complex relationship has just become more chaotic after private text messages allegedly leaked online. A blogger named 1goatalexis shared what they claim are private exchanges with Cardi, where she accuses her estranged husband, Offset, of having an affair with influencer AriTheDon during their marriage. The messages show Cardi expressing frustration over rumours that she and Offset were still involved, claiming that she hasn’t been with him recently and that others should stop making false claims about her.

One of the leaked messages reportedly reads, “He was f***ing Ari while we were together, but I’m the one who’s wrong for moving on?” This accusation has sparked a wave of reactions online, with some fans supporting Cardi’s right to defend herself, while others are sceptical about the authenticity of the messages and their timing. Neither Cardi B, Offset, nor AriTheDon have responded publicly to these allegations.

The game's global governing body said last Sunday (13) it would set up a dedicated fund to support the Afghan women, most of whom have resettled in Australia after fleeing Afghanistan when the Taliban swept to power in 2021.
