Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par is scheduled to arrive in theatres next month. Notably, the film’s fate at the box office will entirely depend on the film’s content and the word-of-mouth at the same time.
In today’s situation, films have a habit of arriving early on OTT in case they fail to make an impact at the box office. But a new change is taking place as films are releasing after a short gap, even if the films have managed to do some amazing business.

Aamir Khan recently said in an interview that the gap needs to be almost six months since it leaves a negative impact on the film’s overall collections.
He mentioned that it also discourages people from watching films in theatres and that the excitement of visiting the big screen has decreased at the same time.

But now the biggest question is whether Aamir himself will follow the same thing for his film Sitaare Zameen Par. Notably, there are no details available on the OTT platform that has purchased the rights to the upcoming film.
While Aamir was giving the right suggestion, the reality is that the audiences have changed and no one can be forced to visit theatres. The only requirement of the general public nowadays is good content.

No one is aware of the content that would be featured in the trailer of Sitaare Zameen Par. But it needs to have some amazing moments without revealing a lot of things, and this is the only way to pull the audience to the theatres.
In case Aamir follows his words and does not release the film on OTT for six months, there is a chance that people might visit the theatres to watch it.
But in this situation, the film needs to receive a positive response from Day 1. Let’s wait and watch what will happen on June 20, 2025.
