Aamir Khan's ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ first poster: R.S. Prasanna brings a story of ‘Sabka Apna Apna Normal’

Nearly 17 years after he left audiences deeply moved with Taare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan returns with a spiritual successor — Sitaare Zameen Par — promising an uplifting, humorous, and emotionally resonant cinematic journey. While the trailer was originally set to launch last week, the team postponed it in light of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam. However, to maintain promotional momentum, the makers have now revealed the film’s first official poster.
The Poster: Familiar Warmth with a Contemporary Touch
The newly released poster by Aamir Khan production instantly invokes a sense of nostalgia, drawing visual parallels with Taare Zameen Par through its bright, hand-drawn aesthetic. Adorned with colourful doodles — including a football, a DNA strand, and a basketball hoop — the poster radiates youthful energy and hints at the vibrant, dynamic world the film explores. At the centre is Aamir Khan, surrounded by a lively and diverse group of characters, ranging from quirky classmates to affectionate family members and mentors, suggesting a story rich in relationships and discovery.

The Story: Connection, Compassion, and Rediscovery
Sitaare Zameen Par follows the emotional journey of a man who finds himself reconnecting with life through his bond with children who perceive the world differently. In helping them embrace their uniqueness, he is forced to confront his own vulnerabilities, leading to a powerful narrative of growth, healing, and second chances.
Directed by R.S. Prasanna and produced under the Aamir Khan Productions banner, the film is written by Divy Nidhi Sharma. Aamir Khan leads the cast alongside Taare Zameen Par’s Darsheel Safary and Genelia Deshmukh in pivotal roles. This marks Aamir’s return to the big screen after two years, with a role that blends emotional depth with light-hearted charm.

Fan Reactions: A Wave of Excitement
The poster launch sparked a wave of enthusiasm on social media, with fans expressing their anticipation in the comments section. “Glad to see that music is still given by the goated trio!” wrote one user, while another excited fan asked, “When will the trailer come?” A third comment summed up the mood, simply stating, “So excited, can’t wait!”. Some also compared the film poster with the original spanish film 'Champeones'.
Aamir's last film
Aamir Khan was last seen in the 2022 film 'Laal Singh Chaddha', an official Hindi remake of the Hollywood classic 'Forrest Gump'. The film, directed by Advait Chandan, puts Aamir in the shoes of a simple, honest man whose extraordinary journey touches many lives. Despite high expectations and a star-studded cast including Kareena Kapoor and Naga Chaitanya, the movie underperformed at the Indian box office.
