Report says June 20 may be release date for Aamir Khan’s next film Sitaare Zameen Par
Bollywood icon Aamir Khan is gearing up for his much-anticipated return to the silver screen with Sitaare Zameen Par, a film that marks his cinematic comeback. Directed by the talented R.S. Prasanna, best known for the poignant comedy Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, the movie is already stirring excitement across the industry. Promising a heartfelt blend of humor, emotion, and impactful social themes, the project aligns with Aamir’s well-known preference for meaningful storytelling. Starring alongside him are the charming Genelia D’Souza and Darsheel Safary—fondly remembered as Ishaan from Taare Zameen Par—adding both warmth and a touch of nostalgia for longtime fans.
Pinkvilla reports that Sitaare Zameen Par has chosen a date for its theatrical debut, opening on big screens throughout India on June 20, 2025. Initially, the makers were eyeing a late May launch, specifically May 30, but eventually settled on the June date to make the most of a relatively competition-free window, enabling the movie to have a more robust and extended run at the box office.
A source close to the development revealed that Aamir Khan is personally overseeing various aspects of the film’s release strategy. “Aamir is very particular about his release windows, and the June 20 date provides an open run for at least two weeks with minimal clashes. He’s quite enthusiastic about the content, which he believes combines laughter, emotional depth, and a meaningful social message-all trademarks of his most successful and memorable films,” the source shared.
Described as a heartwarming social dramedy, Sitaare Zameen Par aims to resonate emotionally with viewers while delivering light-hearted, feel-good moments. Promotional campaigns for the film are reportedly well underway, with Aamir taking an active role in finalizing the marketing blueprint.
Remarkably, the movie is said to be an official Hindi remake of the well-known Spanish film Champions, which honors concepts like compassion, inclusivity, and the strength of collaboration. With its strong narrative foundation, soulful performances, and a creative team known for delivering impactful cinema, Sitaare Zameen Par is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated releases of 2025. Fans and industry insiders alike are hopeful that it will leave a lasting impression, much like Aamir’s earlier emotional and socially relevant masterpieces.
