Sitaare Zameen Par Twitter Reviews: The film may not be flawless, but fans feel Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan is back
Back in 2007, Aamir Khan wowed the country with Taare Zameen Par, one of the biggest masterpieces that Bollywood had ever seen. The story, the performances and most of all, his chemistry with co-star Darsheel Safary made this film a memorable watch. So much so that when a spiritual successor titled Sitaare Zameen Par with Genelia Deshmukh was announced, fans were hit with a rush of nostalgia. Today, Aamir returned to the silver screen once again to remind the world that every child is special, just like the 'sitaares' he got to coach in his film. But did Sitaare Zameen Par manage to strike a chord with fans like Taare Zameen Par did? Here's what netizens have to say. A post shared by Aamir Khan Productions (@aamirkhanproductions) Aamir Khan and his film Sitaare Zameen Par have successfully left audiences satiated. While some have pointed out that the film is not as flawless as Taare Zameen Par was, netizens believe that Sitaare Zameen Par has its own charm and is enjoyable. But most importantly, fans feel that after his box office bomb Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), Aamir has finally redeemed himself. One such Twitter review read, '#SitaareZameenParReview: Masterpiece :⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Engaging script +Comedy hits properly and Emotional Scenes are powerful. Mr Perfectionist #AamirKhan is Back. @geneliad looks cute. The CLIMAX is the soul of this Film. 1st Half is Good But 2nd Half 🛐 #SitaareZameenPar.' A rave review read, '#SitaareZameenPar is an enjoyable film. Hard to dislike given the subject. It's an easy crowd pleaser with moral lessons. I can just end the tweet here to get more reach…. BUT gotta be critical for my own honesty - it lacks the extraordinary touch we associate with great Aamir films. At times, it feels repetitive, the film itself grows like a slow learner. Nonetheless, a very positive cinema smiles. 🙂,' whereas another internet user stated, '#SitaareZameenPar Too good ❤️❤️❤️ Kaafi pure film. Bahot hasa aur roya. not a perfect film.. has some flaws (Genelia's arc).. but it has enough good things to make you look over them. Aamir Maamu is back doing what he does best.. teaching us how to live 🥳 BTW WHAT A BANGER PERFORMANCE BY ALL THE SITAARES. THEY WERE LITERALLY THE BEST, FUNNIEST, HEARTIEST & REALEST CHARACTERS I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. Also, don't compare it with Taare Zameen Par (prolly one of the best films ever made in India). This is one is more in the zone of 3 Idiots with its light heartedness. Go watch it on the big screen.' After reading these reviews, are you planning to book your tickets for Sitaare Zameen Par?

Weekend Binge: As Sitaare Zameen Par Hits Theatres, Revisit Aamir Khan Films That Were Hollywood Remakes
New Delhi: Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par has released in theatres today. The film is a spiritual sequel to the 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. It is reportedly more light-hearted than the original and focuses on children with disabilities and their journey of confidence and acceptance. Sitaare Zameen Par is also the Hindi remake of the 2018 Spanish sports comedy, Campeones. Well, this is not the first remake Aamir has starred in. The actor has been part of several official and unofficial Bollywood remakes of Hollywood films. Have a look at the list here: Akele Hum Akele Tum (1995) Based on Kramer vs Kramer (1979), the film stars Aamir Khan and Manisha Koirala in lead roles. The story revolves around a young couple whose marriage faces challenges. After separation, Rohit fights for custody of their son, leading to a poignant exploration of parenthood, love, and sacrifice. Ghajini (2008) The film is a remake of the 2005 Tamil film of the same name, which was inspired by Christopher Nolan's Memento (2000). Aamir Khan played the lead role of Sanjay Singhania, a man seeking revenge for his girlfriend's murder but suffering from short-term memory loss. The film was a box office hit thanks to Aamir's powerful performance, as well as its engaging storyline and impressive action sequences. Dhoom 3 (2013) The third installment in the Dhoom franchise was inspired by Christopher Nolan's The Prestige. The movie follows a thrilling storyline of heists and action, showcasing Aamir Khan's iconic performance as the magician-turned-thief, Sahir and his twin brother, Samar. Mann (1999) The film is a remake of the 1957 Hollywood classic An Affair to Remember. Starring Aamir Khan and Manisha Koirala, the story centres on a couple whose relationship is put to the test due to various circumstances. The film explores themes of love, relationships, and personal growth. Laal Singh Chaddha (2022) The film is an Indian adaptation of the 1994 American classic Forrest Gump, starring Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks. Aamir Khan plays the titular role of Laal Singh Chaddha, a man with a low IQ who finds himself at the centre of significant historical events in India. The film takes creative liberties to adapt the original story to an Indian context, exploring themes of love, friendship, and resilience.

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.

When Shah Rukh Khan teased Aamir Khan over a cup of tea: "Kal bata dena yaar...."
For more than 30 years, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan have been at the top of their careers, and despite all the competition, they cherish a close friendship. They never miss a chance to show support to one another, and at the same time, they never shy away from teasing one another. An example of the same was seen in 2013, when Shah Rukh discussed Aamir's "conscientious" work ethic and joked that the 'Lagaan' star is extremely careful about everything, including drinking tea. The Great Tea Debate Shah Rukh claimed in the interview with Aaj Tak that once, while flying together, Aamir ordered some tea with milk, and he ordered some black coffee while they were traveling together. Aamir advised them to wait until the tea had sufficiently developed color, when the steward asked if they could add some milk. Building up on the incident, Shah Rukh joked that when Aamir comes over to his place and takes too long to decide on tea or coffee, he says - "Kal bata dena yaar, hum ghoom ke aa rahe hain" (Let me know tomorrow, and we'll go out until then). 'I'm yet to meet a person who is so conscientious and seriously conscientious about his work,' he continued, praising Aamir's efforts.

The film has adopted new strategies for its theatrical release. As we wait to see what works for the film, audiences have begun pouring their reviews on social media after watching Sitaare Zameen Par. Sitaare Zameen Par is directed by RS Prasanna. It is backed by Aamir Khan under his banner. The film marks his return to film after his last release Laal Singh Chaddha. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, a user called it a 'well-intentioned film.'

It makes for incredible family viewing and leaves you with a warm, fuzzy feeling at the end.' Giving it 3 stars, another user added, 'What a beautiful movie! Sitaare Zameen Par shines with heartfelt storytelling and stellar acting. The performances, especially by the child actors, are deeply moving and genuine. Some missing in emotions but recommend.'

For me Sitaare Zameen Par > Taare Zameen Par (sic).' Meanwhile, the film is set to premiere with more than ₹ 6 crore business on day 1, as per its advance booking report of Sacnilk. The film had no shows before 9 am, unlike traditional norms. It is being screened in over 9,000 shows across India. Talking about the film's expected business at the ticket window, previously the Mumbai-based exhibitor and distributor Rajesh Thadani said that word-of-mouth will determine good box office results for Aamir's film over the weekend. 'Since it's Aamir Khan and the subject is different, there are hopes that it will do well. I've great hope for the film, it should do anywhere between Rs. 10 to 15 crore. If the word-of-mouth is good, then box office collection should improve, and it should touch Rs. 50 crores in three days. The film is emotional and it will cater to family audiences, children and specially-abled children,' Thadani told PTI. Sitaare Zameen Par also stars Genelia D'Souza, along with ten neurodivergent actors.
