Sitaare Zameen Par, starring Aamir Khan, is one of the year’s most anticipated films. The film eloquently discusses the life lessons learned from physically challenged persons.

The story revolves around Gulshan Arora (Aamir Khan), a brilliant basketball coach. Due to misbehaving with a head coach, he gets a suspension from the basketball association. In this frustration, once Delhi police catches him in the case of drinking and driving, the resulting lower court gives him a punishment of coaching basketball to the mentally disabled children for 3 months. When he comes to know that the team of these special children has gotten selected to play in the nationals, he tries to make them get ready for the nationals. Was handling such a special child easy? Do they really qualify for the final? Climax is the real crux of the story. So, to know what happens at the end, one must watch it.

Aamir Khan is the center of attraction in this film, and his performance is exceptionally good. In the role of a basketball team coach, he has fully justified his part. Genelia Deshmukh, on the other side, is another attraction of the film. Apart from him, other artists like Brijendra Kala, Dolly Ahaluwalia, and Nikhat Khan have also impressed the audience with their outstanding performances.

Actors who have played the role of mentally challenged have done a mind-blowing job. Their performances are highly appreciated.

Music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and a score by Ram Sampath are another attraction of the movie. To a large extent, music enhances the beauty of the film.

Overall, this is one of the finest movies that no one should miss because there are at least some lessons for everyone in this film. So, why wait? Go and watch it in your nearest cinema hall.
