‘Laapataa Ladies’ misses Oscar shortlist; Aamir Khan responds
India’s official entry for Oscars' International Film category, Kiran Rao’s ‘Laapataa Ladies’ (Lost Ladies) misses the shortlist. Aamir Khan productions responds.
Aamir Khan’s highly anticipated film Laal Singh Chaddha is approaching its theatrical release and the audience is everything but patient! The excitement around ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ is touching the stars and it wouldn’t be too soon to say that the Aamir Khan starrer will not release on OTT until 6 months after the film’s theatrical release.
Several films release on OTT soon after they hit the cinema, which is why the curiosity among the audience of going to the theater and watching a movie has somewhat reduced.

Talking about the same, Aamir Khan says “One of the reasons primarily I think the curiosity of going to theaters has reduced because films come on OTT right after they come in theaters, they come on OTT very fast. So I have always tried to keep a 6 month gap for my films. I don’t know what the industry follows, but I like to keep a 6 month gap. So that’s what I tried to do for all my films and up till now, we have managed that”.
