A Career Milestone for Genelia Deshmukh

While Sitaare Zameen Par marks yet another hit for Aamir Khan — now his fifth highest-grossing film, trailing only 3 Idiots, PK, Dangal, and Secret Superstar — it also represents a career peak for Genelia Deshmukh, who stars opposite Khan. The film has become her most successful outing since Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na.

As a spiritual sequel to 2007’s Taare Zameen Par and inspired by the 2018 Spanish film Champions, Sitaare Zameen Par has garnered ₹242.50 crore gross worldwide in just 23 days. Of that, ₹54 crore came from international markets, reflecting its strong global reception.

Released on June 20, the film is directed by RS Prasanna and produced under Aamir Khan Productions with a reported budget of ₹80 crore. On July 13, it recorded a 43.28% occupancy rate for Hindi screenings — a strong figure for its fourth weekend.

Will Sitaare Zameen Par Release on OTT?

Initially, Aamir Khan was hesitant about a digital release. However, reports now suggest that the film may adopt a pay-per-view model on YouTube, offering the makers greater control over pricing and distribution — a potentially game-changing move in Indian cinema.

Ranked Among Top Grossers of the Year

According to IMDb and industry reports, Sitaare Zameen Par currently holds the sixth spot among India’s top-grossing films of 2025 and is expected to soon overtake Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly to enter the top five.
