Sitaare Zameen Par Twitter Review: Is Aamir Khan's sports comedy-drama Hit or Flop? Read these 9 tweets to know

Sitaare Zameen Par starring Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh in the lead is now running in cinemas. The sports comedy-drama has been among the highly anticipated Bollywood films for a long time, and since its release, social media has been flooded with reactions from fans. Take a look at these 9 tweets from X users to decide whether the film is a Hit or a Flop.
A fan took to the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter and shared how the film is beyond the rating system. "#SitaareZameenParReview This film is more than just about "stars" 1 2 34 5 stars can't measure it. You can't judge the heart and effort of those special kids and #AamirKhan It's emotional, powerful & truly special. #SitaareZameenPar is a must-watch! Must watch. That's it," read the tweet.
An admirer who watched the film along with their mother shared the emotional experience through a heart-touching note. "#SitaareZameenPar touches you, makes you question the way you think. It makes you laugh out loud, makes your eyes well up & gives you hope. It's incredibly reassuring that a superstar like #AamirKhan would put his time, money & face to make something that's this bold & risky," read a part of the review.
The fan also wrote how it's the ray of sunshine that everyone badly needs. Sharing the emotional reaction of their mother after watching the film, the X user wrote, "Mom was so moved, she wanted to record this then & there."
Take a look at more reactions below:
Overall, the film has got a thumbs up from the initial audience on social media as a large section of the netizens seem to have liked it.
Meanwhile, Sitaare Zameen Par recorded an advance booking of 46,000 tickets in national multiplexes, which is underwhelming. The film will rely on positive word of mouth to record a healthy lifetime number. The growth in collections on Saturday and Sunday will shape the fate of the movie.
Sitaare Zameen Par marks the return of Aamir Khan at the box office 3 years after his Laal Singh Chaddha which also featured Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead.

Aamir Khan's son Junaid pushed by Salman Khan's security? Video from Sitaare Zameen Par screening sparks debate

Salman Khan visited the Sitaare Zameen Par premiere night to lend his support to longtime friend and actor Aamir Khan. Salman was accompanied by an entourage of security guards. The security was so tight that Aamir's son Junaid Khan had to face the ire while approaching Salman. While it was meant to be a celebratory night, a little chaos and tension unfolded when Junaid Khan got pushed by Khan's team. In a viral video, Junaid Khan can be seen approaching Salman Khan but gets pushed away by Khan's security. The video is receiving reactions from all corners. While some fans are celebrating it, citing the 'Sigma' and 'Aura' of the Sultan actor, a section highlighted the situation's seriousness. A social media user shared the video on Twitter (now X) and hailed Salman Khan's aura. The tweet reads, "Bhai ka aura is unmatchable (with biceps emoticon)." Another reacted, "That walk. That presence. That swag. SK's aura hit different (with fire emoji). A third user wrote, "Damn... Is it for real? (mind-blown emoji) When it comes to Salman Khan, things can be unexpected to happen. Still yakeen nahi ho raha... I'm shocked (shocking emoji)." For the unversed, Salman Khan's heightened security comes in the wake of several death threats which he is receiving for over an year. His team is very particular about superstar's security, especially during public outings. Before Junaid Khan, Vicky Kaushal also had to face the same. Junaid Khan's career and work front Talking about Junaid Khan, he marked his acting debut with Maharaj, co-starring Sharvari. The movie was directly released on streaming giant Netflix, skipping the theatrical outing. Further, he was seen in Loveyapa, where the actor was paired with Khushi Kapoor.

‘Sitaare Zameen Par' review: More life lessons from Aamir Khan

What might Aamir Khan's last decade-and-a-half have been like had he not done 3 Idiots? I'd imagine his fans, and maybe the man himself, would look at the 2009 film as a positive turning point. It was, after all, a wild success, one that set Khan up for other, even more successful films in the same vein. He was already gravitating towards morally instructive projects; Taare Zameen Par (2007), his first as director, was about a gifted dyslexic child. But 3 Idiots showed how happy audiences were to be lectured at if you made yourself look silly and made them feel smart. Always tagged as a 'thinking actor', Khan now seemed determined to make audiences think, even if his films often did the thinking for them. Sitaare Zameen Par might be the purest example yet of an Aamir Khan Life Lessons Film. There's barely a scene in its 158 minutes that doesn't lend itself to a teachable moment. Like in Dangal (2016), Khan assumes the role of uninformed grump who will eventually see the light. Every wrongheaded thing said by basketball coach Gulshan about people with learning disabilities is brought up later and turned into sagely advice. If you like being explained things like you're a seven-year-old, this is the film for you. Freshly fired from his job for punching another coach, Gulshan is arrested for drunk driving. The judge hearing his case spares him a jail sentence in lieu of community service as the coach of a team of youngsters with various learning disabilities, from Down syndrome to invisible autism (the team-members are all played by differently abled actors). Gulshan is blithely insensitive to begin with, referring to his charges as 'mental' and 'abnormal'. This prompts the first of many, many lectures, with the school's owner, Kartar (the winsome Gurpal Singh), patiently explaining how everyone has their own level of normal. Sitaare Zameen Par is a remake of the 2018 Spanish film Champions, which has already been adapted in Saudi Arabia, Germany and USA (as a Woody Harrelson film). Director R.S. Prasanna and writer Divy Nidhi Sharma don't just retain the broad beats of the original, they reuse specific jokes, actions, scenes verbatim, from a wayward throw that knocks down a tube light to a mouse rescue that helps overcome a fear of bathing. Some of the borrowings are done without a thought as to whether they'd work here. In the Spanish film, one of the players has a girlfriend who might be a sex worker. The gag fails miserably in Sitaare, both because the character is younger and because it feels like cheap bait to have the word 'prostitute' repeated for laughs in an Indian film (it's like a version of the 'balaatkar' gag in 3 Idiots). Prasanna made the sparkling Shubh Mangal Saavdhan (and its Tamil original, Kalyana Samayal Saadham), but is entirely subsumed by Khan's desire to educate and edify. He may as well be a hired hand on an episode of Satyamev Jayate, the widely watched social reform documentary series that Khan hosted in the early 2010s. There's a base level of professionalism here, but I'd rather see a trainwreck than another brightly lit, boringly staged, generically scored Hindi film. When Gulshan's not being lectured by Kartar or his mother (Dolly Ahluwalia), his wife (Genelia Deshmukh) shows up to criticise and improve him (they're separated because he doesn't want to have children). He slowly becomes more empathetic, guiding the team through a special needs national basketball tournament. On the bus back from Chandigarh, they're heckled by unsympathetic passengers: again, a scene lifted almost word for word from the original, but without rhythm or wit. That Khan, who had a deserved reputation for pushing original material, has now made two films in a row without an original bone in their body, is both depressing and indicative of where Hindi cinema is today. He is, of course, responsible for his own choices, but I also blame 3 Idiots. Most people are ruined by failure. Aamir Khan was ruined by success.
