His deep bond with Rupa D’Souza (Kareena Kapoor Khan) blossoms into love, marriage, and the birth of their son Aman (Rohaan Singh).
Laal’s world expands through military service and encounters with individuals from diverse backgrounds. He befriends Bala (Naga Chaitanya), a loyal colleague in the Indian Army, and later forms an unlikely friendship with Muhammad Paji (Manav Vij), a Pakistan Army veteran. These friendships add emotional resonance, transcending borders and stereotypes.
The film follows Laal’s presence through events that reflect India’s evolving social and historical landscape, portrayed through his uniquely innocent lens. His interactions subtly shape the lives around him, offering messages of peace, unity, and kindness.
Aamir Khan delivers a measured and endearing performance as Laal—finding charm in quiet sincerity and emotional growth.

Visually, the film uses sweeping landscapes and nostalgic settings to mirror Laal’s simple yet epic arc.
