Mumbai: Bollywood perfectionist Aamir Khan-starrer  Laal Singh Chaddha's release has been postponed again. Amir Khan Productions has released statement on Instagram. 

"This is to announce that our film, Laal Singh Chaddha, will not be releasing on 14th April as planned. This is because we are unable to complete the film in time. The film will now be releasing on 11th Aug 2022 in theatres worldwide."

The other half of the statement reads, "We would like to thank Mr. Bhushan Kumar, TSeries, Om Raut and the entire team of Adipurush from the bottom of our hearts.

Movie critic Taran Adarsh said in a tweet, film team 'Adipurush' - starring Prabhas has decided to accommodate Aamir Khan and opted out of the 11 August 2022 date. 

The production of  Laal Singh Chaddha was halted in March 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic in India before resuming during mid-September 2020 in Delhi, due to which the film – initially scheduled for a Christmas 2020 release – was delayed. 

Aamir Khan bought the rights of the film in early 2018 with the help of Los Angeles-based producer and director Radhika Chaudhari and announced the film officially on 14 March 2019, with its title.
