Aamir Khan Changes Shoot Location For ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ Due To India – China Clash

The ambitious story of ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ has taken actor-producer Aamir Khan and director Advait Chandan to Kolkata, Delhi, Rajasthan, Chandigarh and Amritsar so far while a major chunk of the film was to be shot in Delhi and Ladakh when the nation was stuck with the lockdown.

Even as Aamir is certain about not resuming shoot until October, the superstar — along with co-producer Viacom 18 Motion Pictures — has decided to cancel the Ladakh schedule in light of the India-China military standoff along the Galwan valley.

A source reveals, "Given the current scenario, shooting in Ladakh is out of the question. So, Aamir, Advait and the top brass at the studio are considering shifting the venue to Kargil. The final call will be taken in the coming weeks."
