Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par struggles to cross Rs 1 crore in fourth week, but remains a global hit

Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par closed out its fourth weekend on a positive note, showing steady growth. However, the film is now struggling to retain momentum and is unable to cross Rs 1 crore. According to early estimates by industry tracker, Sacnilk, the film collected Rs 80 lakh on its fourth Tuesday. The total collection now stands at Rs 161.20 crore.

Globally, Sitaare Zameen Par has amassed Rs 245.90 crore, including Rs 54 crore from overseas markets. The film has already surpassed the lifetime box office collections of its spiritual predecessor, Taare Zameen Par. It also outperformed several of Khan’s earlier films like Thugs of Hindostan (Rs 145.55 crore), Ghajini (Rs 114 crore), Talaash (Rs 93.61 crore), and Laal Singh Chaddha (Rs 61.12 crore).

Sitaare Zameen Par follows Gulshan, a man assigned to coach ten neurodivergent adults as part of his court-mandated community service. Each character shines with their own distinct personality, from Sunil (Ashish Pendse) and Satbir (Aroush Datta) to Lotus (Aayush Bhansali), Sharma Ji (Rishi Shahani), Guddu (GopiKrishnan K Verma), Raju (Rishabh Jain), Bantu (Vedant Sharma), Golu (Simran Mangeshkar), Kareem (Samvit Desai), and Hargovind (Naman Misra).

Directed by R.S. Prasanna and produced by Aamir Khan alongside Aparna Purohit, with Ravi Bhagchandka as co-producer, the film also stars Genelia Deshmukh, Dolly Ahluwalia, and Brijendra Kala in pivotal roles. Sitaare Zameen Par premiered in theatres on June 20.
