What 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is all about
Aamir Khan plays a short-tempered basketball coach who gets suspended after hitting the head coach. With more legal trouble coming his way, he's given a chance to avoid jail by doing community service. His job? Coaching a team of neurodivergent athletes. And from this point, the story takes a touching turn. The film is directed by RS Prasanna and stars Genelia D'Souza alongside Aamir Khan.
It also introduces ten fresh talents: Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Samvit Desai, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.
'Sitaare Zameen Par' review
The Times of India gave the film 3 stars and praised its balance of emotion and message. Here's an excerpt from their review, 'Despite a sensitive and layered subject, R S Prasanna's directorial venture, written by Divy Nidhi Sharma, remains a wholesome, feel-good watch.
It strikes a commendable balance between delivering a message and educating viewers about ID, all with a lighthearted touch. At its core is a message of inclusivity—conveying that people with ID are employable, independent, full of life, and deeply empathetic.
'
The review also praised how the characters' traits were shown with sensitivity, 'The film sensitively portrays the characteristic traits of the players' conditions without reducing them to labels—Bantu's (Vedant Sharma) stimming through ear-scratching, Guddu's (GopiKrishnan K Verma) aquaphobia, Sharmaji's (Rishi Shahani) speech impairment, and the less-recognised invisible autism in high-functioning Hargovind (Naman Misra).
These are presented as facets of their personalities, not just symptoms.'

A tricky optical illusion is challenging internet users to find a single Coca-Cola cap hidden among rows of Banquet bottle caps. Reddit users are stumped by the puzzle, which tests focus and visual acuity. These brainteasers are not only entertaining but also enhance concentration and pattern recognition skills. The Coca-Cola cap is located in the bottom-right section. While some optical illusions test your IQ, others mess with your mind in a totally different way, by tricking your eyes. These brainteasers can leave you blinking twice, scratching your head, and zooming in on the screen just to see what's going on. And now, a new visual challenge is taking the internet by storm. The puzzle that's stumped Reddit users Recently, a puzzle was posted on the popular Reddit forum FindTheSniper, a community known for sharing sneaky images that hide objects in plain sight. The latest optical illusion features neat, uniform rows of Banquet bottle caps. At first, the caps all look the same. But there's a twist, somewhere among them is a single Coca-Cola cap hidden cleverly in the crowd. Sounds easy? Think again.

'Nothing like that happened,' says family member Speaking to Suman TV, a family member said, 'Actually, nothing like that happened. We have been answering every call we get to see if anyone can help us. Some unknown person called us pretending to be Prabhas Anna's assistant. We found out after that it was a fake call. He doesn't even know something like this is happening. We have not received any financial help yet.' This revelation comes just days after Venkat's daughter Sravanthi told One India that someone claiming to be from Prabhas' team had called with an offer of support. 'Daddy isn't well at all. He is very serious and in the ICU. He needs a kidney transplant. It will cost us at least Rs 50 lakh. Prabhas' assistant called us and offered financial assistance. They asked us to inform them when his transplant happens to cover the cost,' she had said. Fake alert! Prabhas' picture with bald head goes viral Vishwak Sen donates Rs 2 lakh for medical expenses While the call from Prabhas' supposed team turned out to be fake, actor Vishwak Sen has stepped forward to help. In a video shared by Sasi TV, the family confirmed receiving Rs 2 lakh from the Gangs of Godavari actor. 'Vishwak Sen is the first hero from the film industry to know about Fish Venkat's health and donate Rs 2 lakh. This is going to help us a lot, so thank you.
