The wait is almost over, Bollywood lovers! Aamir Khan, the man we lovingly call Mr. Perfectionist, is finally returning to the big screen with his much-anticipated film, Sitare Zameen Par, releasing in theatres on June 20, 2025. And guess what? The first review is already out—and it’s packed with praise, heart, and a few happy tears.
After a long hiatus since Laal Singh Chaddha (which hit screens in 2022), Aamir is back with a story that promises to stir the soul and challenge our perceptions. And from the buzz, it looks like this isn’t just another film—it’s an emotional rollercoaster with a purpose.
Sudha Murty Shares Her Verdict – And It’s All Love
In a special screening held ahead of the release, none other than Sudha Murty, celebrated author and Member of Parliament, watched the film—and she didn’t hold back her emotions.
Describing it as a “powerful eye-opener”, Sudha Murty shared that Sitare Zameen Par beautifully explores the world of children who are often labeled as “different” by society. But through Aamir Khan’s heartfelt storytelling, the film helps us see these children for who they really are—sensitive, pure, and incredibly gifted in their own ways.
If this doesn’t already tug at your heartstrings, what will?
A Cast That Shines Like Sitare
Helmed under Aamir Khan’s production, this film doesn’t just bank on a big name. Alongside Aamir, we’ll see Genelia D’Souza returning to the silver screen—another treat for the 2000s Bollywood fans! The film also stars Rashod Dutt, Gopi Krishna, Vedant Sharma, Rishabh Jain, and Rishi Sahani in pivotal roles.
But here’s the surprise twist that’s got fans talking: Aamir Khan’s real-life mother, Zeenat Khan, will make her acting debut in this film! Yes, maa ke haathon ka pyaar is coming to the big screen—literally! Can we get any more emotional?
What’s the Story?
Written by Nidhi Sharma, Sitare Zameen Par dives deep into the journey of children who don’t fit into conventional molds. Think of it as a spiritual successor to Aamir’s iconic Taare Zameen Par, but with a fresh angle and new faces.
The film aims to highlight how society often misunderstands or overlooks children with special needs. But rather than getting preachy, it wraps its message in warmth, humour, and a whole lot of Bollywood-style emotions.
The Buzz Is Real
The hype surrounding Sitare Zameen Par isn’t just PR—fans have been eagerly waiting to see Aamir back in action. The promos, the emotional sneak peeks, and now Sudha Murty’s heartfelt review have only added fuel to the fire. Social media is already abuzz with fans predicting that this could be Aamir’s big comeback dhamaka.
And let’s face it, when Aamir goes all-in on a script, you know it’s not going to be ordinary. From Lagaan to Dangal, he’s built a legacy of meaningful cinema, and Sitare Zameen Par seems poised to carry that legacy forward.
