Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par, released in theatres on June 20, earned â¹11.5 crore on its opening day — slightly below the â¹11.7 crore debut of Laal Singh Chaddha in 2022.
While Laal Singh Chaddha ended its run with around â¹60 crore, Aamir’s earlier hit Taare Zameen Par had earned â¹2 crore on its first day in 2007.
Despite the modest start, Sitaare Zameen Par is expected to see growth over the weekend, thanks to positive word-of-mouth and encouraging audience feedback.
Directed by RS Prasanna, the film also features Genelia D’Souza in a pivotal role and is backed by Aamir Khan, Aparna Purohit, B Shrinivas Rao, and Ravi Bhagchandka.
