Aamir Khan's 'Sitaare Zameen Par' To Not Release On Christmas 2024: Report

Mumbai, August 28 - Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan's sports comedy Sitaare Zameen Par has reportedly been postponed for Christmas 2024 release due to a delay in the post-production work. The movie is directed by Shubh Mangal Saavdhan fame R.S. Prasanna.

Aamir will be returning to the big screen after more than two years after the debacle box office performance of the comedy-drama Lal Singh Chaddha (2022). It was the first major box office misfire for the actor in a long time which forced him to take a short break.



Produced by Aamir Khan under his banner Aamir Khan Productions with Jio Studios, Sitaare Zameen Par was officially announced to be released on Christmas 2024, however, according to the latest report by Peepingmoon.com, the movie will not be able to achieve its post-production timeline.

While the official announcement regarding the postponement is yet to be made, the report says it is unlikely to be released on its originally announced Christmas date. It is said that Aamir is happy with the way the film is shaping up but the post-production requires more time to achieve 100% satisfactory output.

Interestingly, Jio Studios has already scheduled Varun Dhawan's action thriller Baby John for Christmas 2024 release which more or less confirmed the postponement of Sitaare Zameen Par which is likely to be released in March/April 2025.

Sitaare Zameen Par is an adaptation of the critically acclaimed Spanish film Campeones, which tells the story of an arrogant and self-centred basketball coach. Genelia Deshmukh plays the female lead, while much of the supporting cast consists of real-life athletes with disabilities, adding authenticity to the story.
