Aamir Khan is back with a new film, ‘Sitare Zameen Par’, 18 years after the emotional ‘Taare Zameen Par’. This time, he’s not playing a gentle teacher but a tough, outspoken basketball coach named Gulshan. The film, directed by R.S. Prasanna, is a remake of the 2018 Spanish comedy ‘Champions’. Aamir will star alongside Darshil Safary and Jhanak Shukla, not Jinalia D’Souza as previously stated, likely a confusion with another film or project.
A different story, same star
While ‘Taare Zameen Par’ made audiences cry, ‘Sitare Zameen Par’ is a comedy with a hidden message. It’s about love, friendship, and people with disabilities. Aamir explained that Gulshan is a complex character who insults everyone, including his wife, mother, and senior coach. As the story unfolds, Gulshan learns to connect with others and discovers the true meaning of being human.
Coaching with a twist
The film follows Gulshan as he coaches a team of disabled players. Aamir shared that this role is a departure from his previous one. He’s excited to bring this new character to life. ‘Sitare Zameen Par’ was initially set to release in December 2024 but is now scheduled for June 20, 2025. With Aamir at the helm, fans are eagerly waiting to see how he brings this story to the big screen.
