Actor Aamir Khan recently shared exciting updates about his much-awaited movie Sitaare Zameen Par. The film is a sequel to the 2007 hit Taare Zameen Par, which remains close to the hearts of millions. Aamir revealed that the movie is set to release around Christmas this year.
The actor spoke about the project during his visit to Gujarat for the Republic Day celebrations at the Statue of Unity. Aamir called Sitaare Zameen Par an “entertaining film” and mentioned that the climax was shot in the city of Vadodara. “The sequel to Taare Zameen Par is Sitaare Zameen Par. The climax of that movie was filmed in Vadodara,” he shared while interacting with the media.
This announcement has created a buzz among fans, especially since it reunites Aamir with Darsheel Safary. Darsheel played the unforgettable role of Ishaan in the original film. After 16 years, the duo is coming together for this sequel, and audiences can’t wait to see how their story continues.
Aamir Talks About His Connection with Gujarat
While talking to the media, Aamir also reflected on his bond with Gujarat, a place he’s been visiting since childhood. He shared fond memories of accompanying his father, filmmaker Tahir Hussain, on shoots in the state. “When I was young, many of my father’s films were shot here. I must have been around 12 years old when I first visited Vadodara,” he said.
Aamir also commented on how much the city has changed over the years. “Vadodara has grown so much. There are luxurious buildings now, and the roads have improved a lot. When I came here as a kid, it was very different,” he remarked, adding that being in the city again brought back a flood of memories.
What to Expect from ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’?
Aamir has described Sitaare Zameen Par as a feel-good movie, and fans are eager to see what it has in store. While details about the storyline are still under wraps, the sequel is expected to carry forward the themes of emotional connection and self-discovery that made Taare Zameen Par a classic.
The original movie focused on the struggles of a dyslexic child and how he finds his spark with the help of an empathetic teacher, played by Aamir. With Sitaare Zameen Par, fans are curious to see how the sequel builds on that legacy.
Aamir is not just acting in the movie but is also producing it, showing his dedication to the project. “It’s a special film for me, and I’m excited to bring it to the audience,” he said.
Vadodara’s Role in the Film
Vadodara, a city rich in culture and history, seems to have played a crucial role in the making of the movie. The climax being shot there has only added to the anticipation. While Aamir didn’t reveal much about the scenes, he hinted that the location has been beautifully captured.
The excitement among locals has been high since the news broke. Many are looking forward to spotting familiar landmarks when the movie releases.
Fans Are Counting the Days
Ever since the announcement, social media has been buzzing with reactions. Fans of the original movie are thrilled about the sequel, especially since it brings back Aamir and Darsheel. Many believe that Sitaare Zameen Par will recreate the magic of the first film while offering something fresh and new.
With Christmas 2025 marked on the calendar, it looks like Aamir Khan is ready to end the year on a high note. If the buzz is anything to go by, Sitaare Zameen Par could become one of the most talked-about films of the year.
