Salman Reviews Laapataa Ladies, Accidentally Calls It Kiran's Directorial Debut

Salman took to his X handle on Wednesday and wrote, “Just saw Kiran Rao’s Laapataa Ladies. Wah wah (wow) Kiran. I really enjoyed it and so did my father. Congrats on your debut as a director, superb job. Kab kaam karogi mere saath (When will you work with me)?”

While many X users applauded Salman for supporting a small film like Laapataa Ladies, some were quick to correct him that it's not Kiran's directorial debut. Salman is good friends with Aamir Khan, Kiran's ex-husband and her co-producer on Laapataa Ladies. Aamir and Salman have famously shared the screen space in Rajkumar Santoshi's 1994 buddy comedy Andaz Apna Apna.

Set in 2001 in rural India, Laapataa Ladies is a story about two young brides who get separated during a train journey and what happens when Manohar (Ravi Kishan), a police officer, takes it upon himself to probe the missing case.
