Bollywood’s highly anticipated film “Sitaare Zameen Par” has gotten off to a decent start at the box office on its opening day. The Aamir Khan-starrer, which released in theaters on June 20, raked in ₹11.5 crore on its first day, according to industry reports.
The opening-day collection of “Sitaare Zameen Par” is slightly below the ₹11.7 crore debut of Aamir’s previous release, “Laal Singh Chaddha,” which hit the screens in 2022. While the film’s performance on the first day was not exceptional, industry experts believe it has the potential to pick up momentum in the coming days.
Directed by Advait Chandan, “Sitaare Zameen Par” is a heartwarming drama that explores the journey of a young chess prodigy, Jagannath Vishwanath, played by Aarya Damle, and his determination to pursue his dreams against all odds. The film also stars Rani Mukerji, Zaira Wasim, and Neeraj Kabi in pivotal roles.
The movie’s release has generated a lot of buzz among cinephiles, who have been eagerly waiting to witness Aamir Khan’s on-screen magic once again. The actor, known for his versatility and meticulous approach to his craft, has often delivered thought-provoking and critically acclaimed films that have resonated with audiences.
While the opening-day collection may not have met the high expectations of some, industry analysts believe that “Sitaare Zameen Par” has the potential to gain traction in the coming days, especially with positive word-of-mouth and critical acclaim. The film’s strong emotional narrative and the talented ensemble cast are expected to draw in audiences, leading to a gradual increase in box office numbers.
As the film continues its run in theaters, all eyes will be on its performance in the upcoming days and whether it can replicate the success of Aamir Khan’s previous hits. Fans and industry watchers alike will be closely following the journey of “Sitaare Zameen Par” as it navigates the competitive Bollywood landscape.
