Sitaare Zameen Par, a spiritual sequel to the 2007 superhit Taare Zameen Par, proved to be a heartwarming family entertainer that garnered immense love from all corners and left a profound impact on audiences. While the film emerged as a blockbuster on the big screen, Aamir Khan took a one-of-a-kind, revolutionary step, going against the tide, by launching the sports comedy-drama on YouTube, introducing Janta Ka Theater at just Rs 100.
Now, while the story of the film touched millions of hearts, the makers are all set to introduce the world to the real stars behind the Sitaare of Sitaare Zameen Par through a documentary titled Sitaaron Ke Sitaare.

About Sitaare Zameen Par
Sitaare Zameen Par is a typical slice-of-life movie that shows Aamir Khan as an arrogant basketball coach made to do community service after a case of drunk driving. He is to train a team of players with intellectual disabilities.
Aamir’s character Gulshan, who lacks sensitivity from the start, who keeps using the word ‘paagal’ (mental), is countered with ‘tingu’, given his height (a bare minimum requirement for basketball). He lives with his mother after leaving his wife, Suneeta, who wants a child. How his interaction with the players transforms him as a person is what forms the premise of Sitaare Zameen Par.
Sitaare Zameen Par stars Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh in lead roles, along with the 10 rising stars. The lyrics are penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya, and the music is composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. The screenplay is written by Divy Nidhi Sharma. The film is produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit, with B. Shrinivas Rao and Ravi Bhagchandka as producers. Directed by R. S. Prasanna, the film released in theatres on 20th June, 2025.
