Aamir Khan’s upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par is now nearing its release. Aamir is actively promoting the film across various platforms. His previous film Laal Singh Chaddha failed at the box office, which is why he is currently putting extra effort into promoting Sitaare Zameen Par. Judging by the trailer and songs, the film is expected to present strong content.

Farhan Akhtar Was Initially Considered Instead of Aamir

In one of the promotional events, Aamir made a surprising revelation about the casting of Sitaare Zameen Par. According to him, when the script for the film was first finalized, he was only involved as a producer. At that time, he was considering casting Farhan Akhtar in the lead role of a basketball coach.

Aamir elaborated further, saying that there were actually plans to make two versions of Sitaare Zameen Par — one in Hindi with Farhan Akhtar and another in Tamil with Sivakarthikeyan. Discussions were held with both actors regarding the project.

Aamir also shared the reason behind his initial decision. After the failure of Laal Singh Chaddha, he had fallen into depression and did not want to act in any films.

Now, with the film close to release, Sitaare Zameen Par is set to be Aamir’s big comeback post-Laal Singh Chaddha.
