New Delhi: Aamir Khan is all set to start shooting for his next movie 'Lal Singh Chadda' which is the official remake of the Hollywood classic 'Forrest Gump' and to keep it as authentic as possible, the actor will be shooting at 100 real locations across India.

A lot has been said about the superstar's preparations for his role in the movie and he is even undergoing physical changes to better fit his character, the actor will be gaining a whopping 20 kgs and will be sporting a turban in some parts of the film to look the part.
