Summary
Reviewers say 'Laal Singh Chaddha' is a faithful adaptation of 'Forrest Gump' with Indian cultural references, praised for performances, especially Aamir Khan and Mona Singh, and soulful music. Critics appreciate the Indianized story, making it relatable through historical events. However, some find it overly similar to the original, lacking originality. The film's length and pacing in the second half are common criticisms. Aamir Khan's performance is noted for being inconsistent. Despite these issues, many recommend it for its emotional impact.

Lal Singh Chadda is a masterpiece & must watch in my opinion!
I have seen Forrest Gump and loved it but this is even better because it's more relatable with historical events. Also, Aamir's character is slightly more cheerful / uplifting than Tom Hank's one, which I like better.

People are reviewing it negatively without even watching it. Shame on such people. I loved the movie. As good as the original one. A worth watching remake.
The adaptation is very good! In few moments the film gonne be better than the original. Musics are wonderful, I've no words to say. Srk gave a super entry. Do watch the movie it's very good movie.
It's the story of a man, who didn't have a master plan, took each day as it was given, if you erred you'd be forgiven, loved his family and his friends, didn't fake, feign or pretend, full of love and dedication, reverence and adoration.
You can easily put the origins of this to one side and enjoy a piece of cinema that is still unique in many ways. The central performance from Aamir Khan is delightful, the supporting roles just as good and the messages and meanings as intense as any from a film that asks you to consider the way you perceive and see the world, and whether there might be anything you can do to make it better for those around you.
