Another viewer slammed the film as a “Big Disappointment” citing a “boring plot” and “forced emotions.” Another rated it 2 out of 5, claiming it lacked impact.
Overall, "Sitaare Zameen Par" is a very boring movie that doesn't live up to its potential. With a more engaging storyline and better direction, it could have been a great film. Unfortunately, it falls short in its current form.

🎬 Sitaare Zameen Par tried to shoot for the stars, but crash-landed hard.
👎 Boring plot, forced emotions & zero impact.
Big disappointment. Sadly, a total flop. #SitaareZameenPar #SitaareZameenParReview#AmirKhan pic.twitter.com/zdG9ewAcUQ

The film had a slow start at the box office with underwhelming advance bookings. Film trade analyst Atul Mohan remained optimistic. “Aamir Khan’s films, barring Thugs of Hindostan and Dhoom 3, are known to be slow openers, and then build on word of mouth,” he says. “And those two were massy films, which Sitaare Zameen Par is not. So, I still have hope that the film can do well even after a slow start, provided it builds some positive word of mouth.”
Aamir had also declined a massive Rs 120 crore offer from Amazon Prime Video for the film’s OTT rights. According to trade analyst if the film fails to significantly increase footfalls in theatres, Aamir could suffer a loss of Rs 120 crore.
