With just two days to go before the release of Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan has rolled out a new smart release strategy—starting with slashed ticket prices.
Sources reveal that the makers are trying to make the film more accessible and increase footfalls from Day 1, especially in tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Ticket pricing has been kept intentionally lower than recent big releases, a move that’s being seen as both audience-friendly and strategically cautious.

This comes amid Aamir’s visible efforts to control the narrative around the film. From giving back-to-back interviews to explaining the film’s concept in-depth, Aamir appears to be playing it safe, possibly to avoid backlash or misinterpretation.
According to insiders, even the censor clearance and screen allocation have been done with a lot of planning. The focus is on maximum visibility but minimal risk, especially given the mixed response to some of Aamir’s past projects.

Trade experts say this pricing strategy may help the film secure strong opening numbers, but long-term success will still depend on word of mouth. If the content fails to connect, even a smart strategy won’t prevent a box office dip.
In short, Sitaare Zameen Par is not just riding on Aamir Khan’s name—it’s riding on a carefully crafted game plan, with big names, controlled hype, and now, budget-friendly tickets.
