Sitaare Zameen Par - More than just a sports drama

Directed by RS Prasanna, ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ stands out for its story and emotions.

It seamlessly blends elements of sports, humor, and touching moments. The plot centers around Aamir Khan, who plays a basketball coach who faces suspension and is subsequently assigned community service. This situation leads him to coach a team of athletes with disabilities for an upcoming tournament.

‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ review

“The film mixes sentiment with spunk, avoiding overly preachy tones. ID (intellectual disabilities) is described through relatable lines like, ‘Humaari kismat haathon pe nahi, chromosome pe likh ke aati hai (Our destiny isn't written on our palms — it's written in our chromosomes).’

While the underdog sports narrative and troubled-coach arc feel familiar, the film’s heart and humour keep it engaging,” reads the Times of India review of the movie, with an impressive rating of 3.5 stars.However, the review also highlights flaws in the film, as it further mentions, “That said, the story does wander. Subplots involving his mother, Preeto (Dolly Ahluwalia Tewari), and their butler Daulatji (Bijendra Kala) contribute little to the core story. A few other sequences feel stretched, and pacing suffers in parts. The climax gets overly sentimental in parts. Some scenes, like the team managing airfare and accommodation for the final match, come across as convenient and trite.
