CBFC Orders Hindi Film ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ to Include PM Modi Quote

  • Aamir Khan's film 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is set for theatrical release on June 20, 2025, after receiving CBFC clearance without cuts.
  • The film faced a potential delay because the CBFC initially requested two edits that Aamir Khan did not accept, delaying the censor certificate.
  • Following discussions between Khan, director R.S. Prasanna, and the CBFC Examining Committee, the film was finally approved intact, reflecting recognition of its social themes.
  • 'Sitaare Zameen Par' stars Aamir Khan as a basketball coach sentenced to community service, mentoring ten neurodivergent adults, marking a spiritual sequel to 2007's 'Taare Zameen Par'.
  • The film's release signifies Aamir Khan's return after nearly three years off screens, generating excitement for its inclusive narrative and new actors' debut.
