Interesting facts

  • Based on: Champions

Sitaare Zameen Par is a 2025 Indian Hindi-language sports comedy-drama film directed by R. S. Prasanna, written by Divy Nidhi Sharma, and produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit. A spiritual successor to Khan's 2007 film Taare Zameen Par and an official remake of the 2018 Spanish film Champions, it stars Khan and Genelia Deshmukh and follows a suspended basketball coach who must serve community service by helping a team of players with disabilities prepare for a tournament.

Production

The original Spanish film Champions (2018) was inspired by the Aderes basketball team in Burjassot (in the province of Valencia), created for people with intellectual disabilities, that won twelve Spanish championships between 1999 and 2014; and the true story of American basketball coach Ron Jones.

Director R. S. Prasanna felt that Aamir Khan was the right pick for the role of the basketball coach due to his humaneness. In October 2023, It was announced that Genelia Deshmukh would star alongside Aamir Khan in Sitaare Zameen Par, which also marks their first collaboration as actors together; she had earlier appeared in Khan's production of the 2008 hit Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na, which marked his nephew Imran Khan's debut.
