Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 1: Aamir Khan-starrer sees slow start; mints THIS amount
Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 1: Aamir Khan's film Sitaare Zameen Par is predicted to have a slow start at the box office. The film was released on Friday. Directed by RS Prasanna, it is the spiritual sequel of Taare Zameen Par. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Sitaare Zameen Par made a business of ₹ 4.76 crore on Friday, June 20. It is to be noted that this is the live data from the website and subject to changes. The final figures will be out post 10 pm. The Aamir Khan movie was reported to release in theatres with over ₹ 6 crore business on day 1 if advance booking is considered. As per the website, the film had sold 1,15,344 tickets for 9,542 shows in all languages nationwide in advance booking. Without blocked seats, the Aamir Khan sequel was poised to make a business of ₹ 3.31 crore from advance booking ticket sales. In total, the film was said to open with ₹ 6.88 crore gross earnings, including blocked seats. The film is following a strictly theatrical release policy which means it might not see its OTT release soon or ever. The film is also experimenting with several new strategies, as per a report of Bollywood Hungama. It is majorly clashing with Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5, which has now slowed down at the ticket window. Talking about Sitaare Zameen Par's box office performance trends and early estimates, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh told Live Mint that Aamir's film will rely on word-of-mouth. He said, "The advance booking is not in sync with the star status of Aamir Khan. Yes, the advances should have been better because Aamir Khan returns to the big screen after a big gap with his own production, starring in it. It should have been better. I genuinely believe Sitaare Zameen Par is a word-of-mouth film. It should grow with word of mouth.' Going by the early reviews from the audience, the film has been dubbed as a 'well-intentioned film.' Critics reviews also hailed Aamir Khan's performance in the film. Sitaare Zameen Par is said to be the Hindi remake of the 2018 Spanish film, Campeones. Besides Aamir, it also has Genelia D'Souza. It also features 10 special actors who marked their acting debut on this Friday.

Aamir Khan gives an update on ‘Andaz Apna Apna 2', reveals script is still in early stages: 'Raj Santoshi is working on...'
Aamir Khan has finally opened up about 'Andaz Apna Apna 2', the much-awaited sequel to the 1994 cult classic where he starred alongside Salman Khan . While fans have long hoped for a reunion, Aamir has now clarified that nothing has been finalised yet. Script in progress In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aamir revealed that director Rajkumar Santoshi is working on a version of 'Andaz Apna Apna 2', but it is still in its early stages. He added that both he and Salman Khan will only agree to the project if they are completely satisfied with the script. 'I really believe that scripts have to come out organically. So Raj Santoshi is working on a version of 'Andaz Apna Apna 2', but it's too early for me to say that it's being made, because until the script is ready and both Salman and I don't love what he narrates and we say yes, until then, the film actually won't be greenlit. So right now, it's in very early stages. But let's all hope that he comes up with a good script. We're all hoping. " Earlier this year, the '3 Idiots' actor spoke about the sequel, but his remarks sparked controversy. The children of the late Vinay Kumar Sinha, who produced the original 'Andaz Apna Apna', responded by stating that Aamir was never a producer on the first film. They also made it clear that they have no plans to sell the rights to either Aamir or Rajkumar Santoshi. The original classic Released in 1994 and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, 'Andaz Apna Apna' is considered one of Bollywood's most iconic comedy films. It starred Aamir Khan and Salman Khan in lead roles, with Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor also playing key characters. SALMAN KHAN ROASTS AAMIR KHAN ON NATIONAL TV | 'STILL CHASING LOVE AT 60?'

Aamir Khan On Andaz Apna Apna 2 With Salman: 'Santoshi Is Writing, But Too Early To Confirm'
Last Updated: Aamir Khan says Rajkumar Santoshi is writing Andaz Apna Apna 2, but he and Salman will only return if they love the script. No greenlight yet. Aamir Khan has finally broken his silence on Andaz Apna Apna 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the 1994 cult classic that starred him alongside Salman Khan. While the buzz around a possible reunion has excited fans for years, Aamir has now clarified where things currently stand and it's far from confirmed. In a recent chat with Bollywood Hungama, Aamir said that director Rajkumar Santoshi is indeed working on the script, but the project is still in the very early stages. The actor emphasised that both he and Salman would only move ahead with the film once they're absolutely convinced by the story. 'I really believe that scripts have to come out organically. So Raj Santoshi is working on a version of Andaz Apna Apna 2, but it's too early for me to say that it's being made, because until the script is ready and both Salman and I don't love what he narrates and we say yes — until then, the film actually won't be greenlit," Aamir said. 'So right now, it's in very early stages. But let's all hope that he comes up with a good script. We're all hoping." Aamir had previously spoken about the sequel earlier this year. However, his comments were met with concern by the children of the late Vinay Kumar Sinha, who produced the original film. They clarified that Aamir was never a producer on the original and said they would not be selling the rights to either Aamir or Rajkumar Santoshi. They stated, 'Aamir was never a producer (of the film), he was just an actor. We will never sell the rights to him or Rajkumar Santoshi. Yes, Aamir said that Rajkumar Santoshi is writing Andaz Apna Apna 2, and we are very excited about it. But I do want to tell you that in our father's lifetime, for the longest time, Raj ji and Dad kept meeting and talking about a sequel." Whether the sequel materialises or not, one thing's for sure: fans of the original continue to wait with bated breath for Amar and Prem to return to the big screen. First Published:
