Genelia Deshmukh Thanks Aamir Khan For Calling Her ‘Accomplished Actor': ‘You Have No…'
Last Updated: Sitaare Zameen Par is a sports comedy drama film directed by R. S. Prasanna, and produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit. Genelia Deshmukh is all heart after receiving a special compliment from Aamir Khan. The actress took to social media to express her heartfelt gratitude to the superstar, who referred to her as an 'accomplished actor". Both will be seen in Sitaare Zameen Par which is releasing on June 20. The trailer has also released and fans are loving it. Recently, during an event in the city, Aamir Khan was seen praising Genelia and said that she was accomplished actor in her first film only. Sharing the same video, the actress wrote, 'Counting my blessings you so much Aamir sir, you have no idea how much confidence you give so many of us..#sitaarezameenpar #sabkaapanormalhai" Talking about his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan has made it clear that the film will not be heading to any streaming platform anytime soon. In an exclusive interview with News18 Showsha, the actor-producer shared his thoughts on how the fast shift to OTT after the pandemic has affected theatre business. He explained that releasing films too soon online takes away from the cinema experience, and he strongly believes that good films deserve to be seen on the big screen. 'I don't know any business where you offer your product, and if someone doesn't buy it, you tell them—don't worry, I'll drop it at your house for free in eight weeks," Aamir said, adding, 'It doesn't make sense to me. That's the reason many films aren't doing well in theatres." He described the current situation as a 'famine and feast" model where either a few films do extremely well or most don't work at all. He believes the early OTT release trend has weakened the theatrical culture and, therefore, made a conscious choice to keep his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par exclusive to theatres. Sitaare Zameen Par is a sports comedy drama film directed by R. S. Prasanna, and produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit. A spiritual successor to Khan's 2007 film Taare Zameen Par, it stars Khan and Genelia Deshmukh. It is a remake of the Spanish film Champions. Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra and Simran Mangeshkar will make their Hindi cinema debut in Sitaare Zameen Par.

Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par Trailer Shines Bright With 5 Inspiring Life Lessons
New Delhi: The much-anticipated trailer of Sitaare Zameen Par, the spiritual sequel to Aamir Khan's 2007 classic Taare Zameen Par, has finally been unveiled — and it's already tugging at heartstrings while sparking important conversations. Directed by R.S. Prasanna, the film promises not only entertainment but also a powerful dose of life lessons through its heartfelt narrative. This time, Khan dons the role of a basketball coach mentoring a team of specially-abled children — the 'Sitaares.' These ten young stars light up the screen with their charm, resilience, and unyielding spirit. The trailer offers glimpses of their journey filled with laughter, challenges, and victories, all woven with lessons that speak volumes. Here are five life lessons that Sitaare Zameen Par is poised to teach its viewers: 1. Finding Light in the Toughest Moments A humorous moment in the trailer shows a player accidentally breaking a tube light with a basketball. Instead of escalating, the tension dissolves when the player shouts 'sixer!' The scene highlights how laughter and light-heartedness can defuse difficult situations and bring people closer. 2. Standing Up for What's Right In a bold and empowering scene, a female character faces off with a harasser on a bus, fearlessly standing her ground. It's a stirring reminder that everyone, regardless of circumstances, has the strength to defend their dignity and speak up. 3. Redefining Normal with Empathy When the coach initially misjudges his team based on societal norms, he is gently corrected with the line: 'Everyone has their own normal—you have yours, and the students have theirs.' This simple yet profound statement urges viewers to embrace diversity and lead with compassion. 4. Winning with Integrity When the coach encourages an aggressive approach, a female player responds with dignity: 'Nahi. Hum jeetne ke liye aaye hain, beizzati karne ke liye nahi.' Her words reflect the soul of true sportsmanship — striving for victory with respect, not hostility. 5. The Power of Unity Despite initial doubts and challenges, the coach and his team come together in a story of perseverance, belief, and mutual respect. Their journey proves that with teamwork and heart, even the most distant dreams are within reach. Backed by Aamir Khan Productions, the film stars Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh, alongside a cast of 10 talented young actors. With lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya and music by the renowned trio Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Sitaare Zameen Par also features a screenplay by Divy Nidhi Sharma. The film is produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit, with Ravi Bhagchandka also serving as producer. Sitaare Zameen Par is set to release exclusively in theatres on June 20, 2025 .
