Also present at the event was Shah Rukh Khan, who stole the spotlight with his rare appearance. Dressed casually, he made quite an impression as he arrived. In videos, he was seen busy interacting at the event.

On the other hand, Salman Khan arrived with his army of security. He joined Aamir for pictures and shared a light moment with the paparazzi. He briefly reviewed the film and said, “Bohot achi film hai (This is a very nice film).”

Several other celebs at the event were Rekha, Vicky Kaushal, Javed Akhtar, Shabana Azmi, Jeetendra, Tushar Kapoor, Kriti Kharbanda, Sunny Kaushal, and Tiger Shroff among others.

Juhi Chawla and Asha Bhosle also arrived at the event.

Riteish Deshmukh attended the event to cheer for his wife, actor Genelia D’Souza who is the leading lady of the Aamir Khan film.

It is jointly produced by Aamir Khan under his banner.

The film marks the acting debut of 10 neurodivergent actors–Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.

Talking about the early box office estimates of Sitaare Zameen Par, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh told Live Mint, “The advance booking is not in sync with the star status of Aamir Khan. Yes, the advances should have been better because Aamir Khan returns to the big screen after a big gap with his own production, starring in it. It should have been better. I genuinely believe Sitaare Zameen Par is a word-of-mouth film. It should grow with word of mouth.”

The film is set to release in cinemas on June 20.
