Actor Aamir Khan has shared that an OTT release for his 2025 film Sitaare Zameen Par was always part of the plan. However, he did not want it to be immediately after the film's theatrical run. The film, which earned over ₹250 crore and received praise for its heartwarming story and performances, will now make its streaming debut on SonyLIV on April 3.
Aamir expressed his desire for audiences across the country to enjoy the film, especially those who have not had the chance to see it in theaters. He also mentioned that the streamer will showcase a documentary, Sitaaron Ke Sitaare, which highlights the real-life parents of the neurodivergent actors in the film.
This is not the first time Aamir has spoken about releasing Sitaare Zameen Par on OTT. In July 2025, he opted to bypass traditional OTT platforms and release the film directly on his YouTube channel, Aamir Khan Talkies, under a pay-per-view model. The actor's goal was to make cinema more accessible and experiment with a new digital distribution model.
Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by R S Prasanna, is a spiritual follow-up to Aamir's critically acclaimed 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. The movie features Aamir as Gulshan Arora, an assistant coach of a major basketball team, and also stars Genelia Deshmukh, Ashish Pendse, and others.
