Junaid Khan chooses Sitaare Zameen Par over Rs 100 crore film, Aamir Khan jokes he is a 'nepo kid'
What happens when a superstar dad meets his cheeky, aspiring actor son in a parody promo? A lot of laughs, a little trolling, and some nostalgic nods.
Aamir Khan
and
Junaid Khan
come together in a fun new promo for Sitaare Zameen Par, where Junaid reveals he rejected a ₹100 crore film to premiere his father's movie on YouTube—for just Rs 1100.
Aamir will be seen recreating scenes from his 1994 classic Andaz Apna Apna as a tribute.
The promo will also feature filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi watching RS Prasanna's Sitaare Zameen Par online. In one scene, Aamir Khan adds a twist to an iconic Andaz Apna Apna dialogue originally delivered by Deven Verma. The actor also pokes fun at himself, referencing past flops like Thugs of Hindostan and Laal Singh Chaddha.
Mock regret and '
nepo kid
' jibe
In the promo, Aamir humorously reflects on past choices, saying he once followed his son's advice to do a multi-starrer and ended up doing Thugs of Hindostan, which brought him endless criticism.
He adds that remaking Forrest Gump as Laal Singh Chaddha cost him both respect and money.
Junaid is set to unveil his quirky plan to bring Sitaare Zameen Par to audiences at home. In the promo, the Loveyapa actor proudly tells his father, 'Aapko sun kar khushi hogi pitaji, maine Rs 100 crore ka offer reject kar diya hai. Aur aapki film Sitaare Zameen Par ko YouTube par daal diya hai sirf Rs 100 mein.' Aamir, taken aback, reacts in mock disbelief and jokingly calls his son a 'nepo kid.'
The parody promo will wrap up with a surprise cameo by Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao's son, Azad Rao Khan, making a brief appearance at the end of the video.

Anupam Kher breaks silence on Saiyaara dominating Tanvi The Great at box office: 'Agar paisa hi sab kuch hota...'
Comparisons and competition are unavoidable when two movies are released at roughly the same time. That's precisely what happened when Mohit Suri 's elegant romantic drama Saiyaara and Anupam Kher 's touching drama Tanvi The Great opened in theaters on the same day. Tanvi The Great failed to achieve the same level of commercial success as the latter, which dominated the box office with over Rs 500 crore and captured the hearts of the public with its music and youthful star cast. However, it isn't keeping Anupam Kher up at night. He believes that movies are about feelings rather than profits. When asked if he believes the Saiyaara craze is to blame for his film's poor performance, the veteran actor responded, "I don't believe that's true," in an interview with News18. 'A few years down the line, when someone will ask you what are your five favorite films are, you won't name the ones based on which of these movies made a business worth crores." The actor continued, "You'll name the ones which touched your hearts." 'Maybe Tanvi the Great didn't mint much money, but it is still priceless. I recently met a lady outside the theater who hugged me tightly and started crying, saying this was the best film she has ever watched," Kher added. Kher's remarks provided a much-needed break in a society that is fixated on numbers. 'You don't value everything based only on money. Agar paisa hi sab kuch hota, to phir log hamesha five-star hotel me hi khate na, dhaba koi kyu jata?" He revealed that he firmly supports his film in spite of the poor collections. 'My film is outstanding commercially," he stated. Tanvi The Great is subtly capturing hearts, while Saiyaara continues to rule the screen thanks to its box office power and Gen-Z appeal. Anupam Kher is the film's producer and director. He co-stars with Iain Glen. On July 18, 2025, Tanvi the Great was released in theaters.
