Aamir Khan is all set to entertain his fans after a 2-year gap with his upcoming movie Sitaare Zameen Par.
Aamir Khan had stunned everyone with his 2007 release Taare Zameen Par and now Sitaare Zameen Par seems to be revolving around a similar theme.
In Taare Zameen Par, the theme revolved around Dyslexia and now reports suggest that for Sitaare Zameen Par, the theme will revolve around Down Syndrome.
A source close to the development reveals, “Just like TZP, Aamir Khan wanted to bring focus on another condition that gets stigmatised in our society through Sitaare Zameen Par. That’s when he found a heartfelt story that sheds light on Down Syndrome and what people dealing with that go through. He wants to handle the subject very sensitively and create an impact that makes people suffering from the syndrome be treated as equals.”
It is yet to be known if Aamir Khan will also direct the movie or just produce it. Actress Genelia Deshmukh will play the lead actress in the movie.
In an earlier interview, Aamir Khan said, “With Sitaare Zameen Par, we are moving 10 steps ahead with the same theme. TZP was an emotional film. (But) This film (SZP) will make you laugh. That film made you cry, this one will entertain you. The theme is the same. That’s why we kept this name very thoughtfully. We all have flaws, we all have weaknesses, but we all also have something special, so we are taking forward this theme.” He added that in TZP, his character helped the special child Ishaan but “in SZP, nine boys, who have their own issues, help me. It’s the opposite.”
