Sitaare Zameen Par box office collection day 9: Aamir Khan has made a smashing comeback at the box office with Sitaare Zameen Par. The film has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark in nine days. Directed by RS Prasanna, it has outperformed new releases like Kajol’s Maa, Vishnu Manchu’s Kannappa and Brad Pitt’s F1.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film has so far collected Rs 109 crore India nett. On its second Saturday, it saw a huge jump in collections, earning Rs 12.75 crore. It made Rs 88.9 crore nett in its first week and continues to bring in strong numbers in its second week. On the other hand, at the worldwide box office, Sitaare Zameen Par has earned around Rs 165 crore, making it the 5th highest-grossing Bollywood film of 2025. It is expected to surpass Salman Khan’s Sikandar (Rs 185 crore) within a day or two to become the fourth highest grosser.
A spiritual successor to Aamir Khan’s 2007 classic Taare Zameen Par, Sitaare Zameen Par is the 7th film of Aamir and his first in 7 years to enter the Rs 100 crore club. The actor’s last movie to hit the milestone was Thugs of Hindostan. For the unversed, it was Aamir’s 2008 drama Ghajini which became the first Indian film to reach the Rs 100 crore milestone.
Politician-author Shashi Tharoor praised the film in an interview with ANI recently. He said, “It is an emotional and heartwarming movie. It teaches a lot. All of Aamir’s performances are great, so I expected nothing less. His acting was first-class in the movie… I liked the story as well. It was well-written. Anyone who watches this movie will not only enjoy it but also learn a lot.”
