PVR Inox Pictures gets the distribution rights for Aamir Khan Productions’ Sitaare Zameen Par!

Aamir Khan Productions’ upcoming Sitaare Zameen Par has been making waves ever since its announcement. A sequel to the 2007 film Taare Zameen Par, the film will be directed by R. S. Prasanna. While excitement among the masses is rising to see Aamir Khan back in cinemas after two and a half years, an interesting update has emerged: the film’s distribution rights have been acquired by PVR Inox Pictures, and the trailer might start playing in their cinemas from May 1.

A source informed, “Aamir has a very long association with PVR Inox team. On the occasion of his 60th birthday on March 14, the exhibition arm of PVR Inox held a film festival across their properties in the country and showcased some of his finest films. A week before this celebration, Aamir Khan had an interesting conversation with Javed Akhtar. This event was held in PVR Juhu, Mumbai. And that’s not all. Sitaare Zameen Par is a spiritual sequel to Taare Zameen Par (2007), which also had a PVR connection. It was backed by the then PVR Pictures and co-produced by Sanjeev Kumar Bijli and Ajay Bijli along with Aamir Khan Productions. Hence, it’s a case of life coming full circle.”

The source continued, “If all goes well, Aamir Khan will launch the trailer of Sitaare Zameen Par digitally on Wednesday, April 30. One can expect to experience it on the big screen from May 1. PVR Inox plans to show the promo in all their cinemas across the country with new releases like Raid 2, Thunderbolts, The Bhootnii etc.”

Made under the banner of Aamir Khan Productions, Sitaare Zameen Par will star Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh. The film will be directed by R. S. Prasanna.
