Sitaare Zameen Par Review: Aamir Khan is Back with a Feel-Good Film
When Taare Zameen Par was released in 2007, Aamir Khan presented not just one film but the story of every child who is a little different to the world. That film not only won the box office but also won people’s hearts. Now in 2025, Aamir has once again brought a similar flavoured film – Sitaare Zameen Par. So let’s see in this Sitaare Zameen Par review whether this film has achieved the same level of emotional depth and impact or not.
Wave of Nostalgia
As soon as Sitaare Zameen Par was announced, fans immediately remembered Taare Zameen Par. Genelia Deshmukh is also in the film, who brings a new flavour with the fresh pairing. But the real spotlight is on those “stars” – i.e. the children – whom Aamir coaches.
Story and Emotions
This time the story comes with a little light-hearted and fun elements. Where Taare Zameen Par was in a more serious and emotional tone, Sitaare Zameen Par is more in the 3 Idiots zone – with a positive message, a little laughter and drama too.
A Twitter user wrote:
“#SitaareZameenParReview: Masterpiece ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5. Engaging script, comedy hits are proper and emotional scenes are also powerful. Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan is back.”
Many people liked the climax of the film, and in many reviews it has also been said that the 2nd half is the soul of the movie.
Performances that will touch your heart
Aamir Khan has once again proved that his presence is enough to make the audience emotional. Genelia Deshmukh also looked sweet and natural in her role, although in some reviews her storyline has been described as a bit weak.
But the show-stealers are those “sitaare” kids — each character among whom is unique and relatable. A fan wrote:
“WHAT A BANGER PERFORMANCE BY ALL THE SITAARES. FUNNIEST, HEARTIEST & REALEST CHARACTERS I’VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME.”
Sitaare Zameen Par Review: Verdict
If you are looking for perfection of the level of Taare Zameen Par, then you may find Sitaare Zameen Par a bit repetitive or basic. But if you want to watch a feel-good film that gives a good message, makes you laugh, cry a bit and finally gives a positive vibe — then this movie is for you.
People are saying that after the flop of Laal Singh Chaddha, this is a strong comeback for Aamir Khan. In this Sitaare Zameen Par review we can say that the movie has definitely satisfied the audience, even if it’s not perfect.
Final Thoughts
Every movie has its own charm, and Sitaare Zameen Par is definitely a charming and heartfelt movie. It would be a bit unfair to compare it with Taare Zameen Par, because the tone of both is different. There is more humour and hope here, and that is why it makes its own place.
If you want a positive, emotional and light-hearted cinema experience, then Sitaare Zameen Par is perfect for you.
