Aamir Khan's comeback: Twitter hails 'Sitaare Zameen Par' a must-watch

Sitaare Zameen Par X Review: After a three-year hiatus, Aamir Khan finally made a powerful comeback to the silver screen with Sitaare Zameen Par. Although not a direct sequel to his critically acclaimed Taare Zameen Par (2007), this film, directed by R.S. Prasanna, spiritually continues its emotional legacy.
While Taare Zameen Par spotlighted the struggles of a dyslexic child, Sitaare Zameen Par shifts focus to the world of sports, emphasising the values of unity, compassion, and resilience. It tells the inspiring story of children with learning disabilities who thrive when nurtured with empathy and given equal opportunities. Genelia Deshmukh plays a significant role in the film, adding depth and emotional resonance.
Sitaare Zameen Par: X reactions
Viewers flooded social media with heartfelt reactions after watching the film. One user posted, '#SitaareZameenPar touches you, makes you question the way you think. It makes you laugh out loud, makes your eyes well up, & gives you hope. It's incredibly reassuring that a superstar like #AamirKhan would put his time, money, & face into making something that's this bold & risky.'
Another wrote, '#SitaareZameenParReview This film is more than just about 'stars' 1 2 34 5 stars can't measure it. You can't judge the heart and effort of those special kids and #AamirKhan It's emotional, powerful & truly special. #SitaareZameenPar is a must-watch! Must watch. That's it.'
One review shared, "#SitaareZameenPar is a feel-good story that leaves you smiling, teary-eyed, & motivated all at once with a strong message.. #SZP starts with a typical arrogant #AamirKhan, but what follows is a touching journey of redemption and acceptance."
Calling it an 'emotional rollercoaster,' a fan wrote, 'an emotional rollercoaster which makes you laugh and cry at the same time #AamirKhan delivers top-notch performance after a long time. The entire cast has done a splendid job and even with cliches, this one is a beautiful watch.'
The film also questions societal definitions of 'normal.' As one viewer noted, 'The film beautifully highlights that 'normal' is subjective.. what seems Subnormal to us might just be someone else's Normal. #AamirKhan captures this emotional truth with sensitivity, making it instantly relatable to Indian audiences.'

Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 1: Aamir Khan-starrer sees slow start; mints THIS amount

Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 1: Aamir Khan's film Sitaare Zameen Par is predicted to have a slow start at the box office. The film was released on Friday. Directed by RS Prasanna, it is the spiritual sequel of Taare Zameen Par. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Sitaare Zameen Par made a business of ₹ 4.76 crore on Friday, June 20. It is to be noted that this is the live data from the website and subject to changes. The final figures will be out post 10 pm. The Aamir Khan movie was reported to release in theatres with over ₹ 6 crore business on day 1 if advance booking is considered. As per the website, the film had sold 1,15,344 tickets for 9,542 shows in all languages nationwide in advance booking. Without blocked seats, the Aamir Khan sequel was poised to make a business of ₹ 3.31 crore from advance booking ticket sales. In total, the film was said to open with ₹ 6.88 crore gross earnings, including blocked seats. The film is following a strictly theatrical release policy which means it might not see its OTT release soon or ever. The film is also experimenting with several new strategies, as per a report of Bollywood Hungama. It is majorly clashing with Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5, which has now slowed down at the ticket window. Talking about Sitaare Zameen Par's box office performance trends and early estimates, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh told Live Mint that Aamir's film will rely on word-of-mouth. He said, "The advance booking is not in sync with the star status of Aamir Khan. Yes, the advances should have been better because Aamir Khan returns to the big screen after a big gap with his own production, starring in it. It should have been better. I genuinely believe Sitaare Zameen Par is a word-of-mouth film. It should grow with word of mouth.' Going by the early reviews from the audience, the film has been dubbed as a 'well-intentioned film.' Critics reviews also hailed Aamir Khan's performance in the film. Sitaare Zameen Par is said to be the Hindi remake of the 2018 Spanish film, Campeones. Besides Aamir, it also has Genelia D'Souza. It also features 10 special actors who marked their acting debut on this Friday.

The movie revolves around basketball coach Gulshan, who is ordered to train a group of specially-abled children for the National Basketball Championship after he is found to be guilty in a drunk and drive case. Now that the premise of the film is clear, Pinkvilla is here to explain the movie's ending Climax Of Sitaare Zameen Par Explained The climax is set during the National Basketball Championship finals. Gulshan, who wasn't keen on coaching kids who need special attention, has trained his team of autistic children for four months. They've worked hard and reached the finals. Everyone believes they'll win the trophy. The match is super tight. Both teams play equally well, keeping the audience on edge. With just 20 seconds left, Gulshan's team needs one basket to win. Kareem (Samvit Desai), a key player, has been practicing a stylish trick shot for months. Instead of going for a simple shot to secure the win, Kareem tries his fancy move. Sadly, he misses. The clock runs out, and Gulshan's team loses. They finish second. You'd expect the team to be heartbroken, but something beautiful happens. While Gulshan feels disappointed, the kids are celebrating with the winning team. A confused Gulshan asks one of the players about why they're happy despite losing. The child answers that they have 'won' the second place. This moment hits hard. The kids don't see the loss as failure. They're proud of their achievement. In a heartwarming scene, Gulshan's team even guides the winners to the podium and congratulates them. The lesson of sportsmanship is taught to Gulshan by his own team. Sitaare Zameen Par Is Now Playing In Theatres Sitaare Zameen Par Post-Climax Scenes The film then moves to a surprising and sweet moment. Preeto (Dolly Ahluwalia) and Daulat (Brijendra Kala) get married. This is a twist that no one saw coming. During the wedding, we learn Sunita (Genelia Deshmukh) is pregnant with Gulshan's child. Gulshan, who never wanted kids, has changed over the four months. Training these children showed him what was missing in his life. He realizes that life is about love, connection, and growth. As the story wraps up, it's time for Gulshan to leave. After four months of bonding with the kids, he can't bear to say goodbye. He plans to sneak away without showing up on the last day. The kids wonder too if their coach will come to bid farewell. In an emotional twist, Gulshan does show up. The farewell is emotional. The bond between Gulshan and his team is clear. Hugs, tears, and smiles fill the scene as they bid eachother goodbye. What Sitaare Zameen Par Means Spiritually Sitaare Zameen Par ends with a powerful message. No one is specially-abled. Everyone is just finding their own normal. The film shows that winning isn't always about trophies. It's about growth, acceptance, and celebrating every step forward. The kids' joy in coming second teaches us to find happiness in every moment. Gulshan's transformation from a reluctant coach to a man who embraces fatherhood shows how life's challenges can change us for the better.

Sitaare Zameen Par Twitter Reviews: The film may not be flawless, but fans feel Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan is back

Back in 2007, Aamir Khan wowed the country with Taare Zameen Par, one of the biggest masterpieces that Bollywood had ever seen. The story, the performances and most of all, his chemistry with co-star Darsheel Safary made this film a memorable watch. So much so that when a spiritual successor titled Sitaare Zameen Par with Genelia Deshmukh was announced, fans were hit with a rush of nostalgia. Today, Aamir returned to the silver screen once again to remind the world that every child is special, just like the 'sitaares' he got to coach in his film. But did Sitaare Zameen Par manage to strike a chord with fans like Taare Zameen Par did? Here's what netizens have to say. A post shared by Aamir Khan Productions (@aamirkhanproductions) Aamir Khan and his film Sitaare Zameen Par have successfully left audiences satiated. While some have pointed out that the film is not as flawless as Taare Zameen Par was, netizens believe that Sitaare Zameen Par has its own charm and is enjoyable. But most importantly, fans feel that after his box office bomb Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), Aamir has finally redeemed himself. One such Twitter review read, '#SitaareZameenParReview: Masterpiece :⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Engaging script +Comedy hits properly and Emotional Scenes are powerful. Mr Perfectionist #AamirKhan is Back. @geneliad looks cute. The CLIMAX is the soul of this Film. 1st Half is Good But 2nd Half 🛐 #SitaareZameenPar.' A rave review read, '#SitaareZameenPar is an enjoyable film. Hard to dislike given the subject. It's an easy crowd pleaser with moral lessons. I can just end the tweet here to get more reach…. BUT gotta be critical for my own honesty - it lacks the extraordinary touch we associate with great Aamir films. At times, it feels repetitive, the film itself grows like a slow learner. Nonetheless, a very positive cinema smiles. 🙂,' whereas another internet user stated, '#SitaareZameenPar Too good ❤️❤️❤️ Kaafi pure film. Bahot hasa aur roya. not a perfect film.. has some flaws (Genelia's arc).. but it has enough good things to make you look over them. Aamir Maamu is back doing what he does best.. teaching us how to live 🥳 BTW WHAT A BANGER PERFORMANCE BY ALL THE SITAARES. THEY WERE LITERALLY THE BEST, FUNNIEST, HEARTIEST & REALEST CHARACTERS I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. Also, don't compare it with Taare Zameen Par (prolly one of the best films ever made in India). This is one is more in the zone of 3 Idiots with its light heartedness. Go watch it on the big screen.' After reading these reviews, are you planning to book your tickets for Sitaare Zameen Par?
