Aamir Khan Productions shares an apology video after 'Laal Singh Chaddha' controversy, fans react

Aamir Khan Productions posted an apology video on social media on Wednesday night. The video opens with the words 'Michami Dukkadam’, which mean 'may all my improper actions be inconsequential'. The phrase is used in Jainism as a part of the Pratikramana ritual every nine days and also on the last day of Paryushana.

Words appear on the black screen and a voice is heard saying, ‘We all are humans and we only commit mistakes. It happens sometimes through our words and sometimes by our actions. At times we do it without knowing and at times when we are angry.’

The video also said, ‘We also hurt people with our jokes and sometimes without talking. If I have hurt your feelings in any way ever then I ask for your forgiveness with my heart, promise and being.’ The video ended with the words 'Michami Dukkadam’. Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ title track plays as background score in the video.

An Twitter user said, ‘Hacked For Sure!! Didn't expect this from Aamir...the voice ain't his.’ While some other social media users reacted positively to the video.

Aamir Khan's 'Laal Singh Chaddha', which released in theatres on August 11, faced boycoytt calls on Twitter ahead of its release over the actor's 2015 remark.

During the controversy, Aamir, in a media interaction, had assured everyone that he loves his country and urged people to not boycott his films.

Directed by Advait Chandan, the film also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya in pivotal roles.
