Aamir Khan’s ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ Shines Bright, Nears ₹160 Crore Mark

Aamir Khan is back—and with a bang! His latest release, Sitaare Zameen Par, co-starring Genelia Deshmukh, is inching toward the coveted ₹160 crore mark at the domestic box office. As of its 23rd day in theatres, the film has already collected over ₹157 crore and is showing no signs of slowing down.

The emotional sports drama, which sees Aamir play a suspended basketball coach mentoring a team of neurodivergent athletes, has struck a powerful chord with audiences. It blends heart, humor, and inspiration—making it the kind of film that grows steadily thanks to word-of-mouth rather than just opening weekend hype.

What’s even more impressive? Sitaare Zameen Par has now become Aamir’s fifth highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing titles like Thugs of Hindostan and Ghajini. For Genelia Deshmukh, it’s officially her most successful Hindi film yet.

Globally, the film has grossed around ₹220 crore on a ₹90 crore budget, making it one of 2025’s most profitable Hindi releases so far. The team even turned down a ₹120 crore OTT offer, opting instead for an exclusive theatrical run—and the gamble paid off.

With consistent collections and massive audience love, Sitaare Zameen Par proves that good storytelling, heartwarming characters, and emotional depth still rule the box office. Keep watching—this star is far from done shining.
