Naga Chaitanya, who is gearing up for the release of Thandel, recently reflected on the unexpected yet significant role Aamir Khan has played in his film journey with Sai Pallavi. The film, directed by Chandoo Mondeti, marks his second collaboration with Pallavi after ‘Love Story’ (2021). Interestingly, both films have had a special connection with Aamir Khan.
During a press event in Mumbai, Naga Chaitanya shared how Aamir had attended the trailer launch of ‘Love Story’ purely out of enthusiasm, despite Chiranjeevi already being announced as the chief guest. He recalled how Aamir’s presence brought immense positivity to the event, and the film went on to become a success. Drawing a parallel, he noted that Aamir was once again present for the Hindi trailer launch of Thandel, calling it a special moment.
Expressing his excitement, Naga Chaitanya said, “It is a truly magical moment.” He humorously added that, going forward, he might have to invite Aamir Khan for every film he does with Sai Pallavi, considering the luck factor.
The actor also reminisced about the time he spent with Aamir on the sets of ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’, where he played a supporting role. He credited those six months of shooting for having a lasting impact on both his professional and personal life, as he learned valuable lessons from Aamir’s approach to acting and filmmaking.
With Thandel set to release soon, Naga Chaitanya remains hopeful that the film will connect with audiences.
