#SitaareZameenParReview –
🌟 Rating: 6.5/10 🌟 #ReviewAfter watching Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par, it brings back memories of his older films. His look reminds you of Rang De Basanti and 3 Idiots, and at the same time, there’s a small effort to try something new.

About The Film
Sitaare Zameen Par revolves around Gulshan Arora, a former basketball coach played by Aamir, who is forced to coach a team of neurodivergent adults after a court order. What begins as a punishment slowly becomes a journey of change, both for the team and for Gulshan himself.
Genelia Deshmukh plays Sunita, his estranged wife, offering a steady emotional touch. The heart of the film, though, lies in the team of “Sitaare” (played by Aroush Datta, Samvit Desai, Simran Mangeshkar, and others). Their performances have struck a chord with audiences. Dolly Ahluwalia and Brijendra Kala also make an impact with their brief but solid appearances.
The film runs for 2 hours and 39 minutes and is released in Hindi with Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions. It holds a UA13+ certificate and balances mature themes with a family-friendly tone. The music by Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy, with lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya, adds the right mix of emotion and energy.
Interestingly, Aamir Khan turned down a major streaming deal to keep this one exclusive to theatres. That decision seems to have paid off. Audiences are remembering his earlier films like Rang De Basanti and 3 Idiots, while also appreciating the film’s fresh energy.
