Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 31: Aamir Khan's movie has maintained a surprise run at the Indian box office as it entered another week, Week 5 on Friday, July 18.
Despite an overall slowdown and clashes with big Bollywood and Hollywood titles, the movie continues to strike a chord with the audience. Braving the Saiyaara storm this weekend, Sitaare Zameen Par recorded a decent collection.
However, it has been struggling ever since it hit the ₹ 160 crore mark in India. It remains to be seen how Aamir's 'no OTT' policy will fare for Sitaare Zameen Par.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Sitaare Zameen Par earned ₹ 1.33 crore on Sunday, Day 31. This came as a surprise spike in collection, considering the movie's run in lakhs over the past week.
The total business made by the film is ₹ 165.49 crore.
Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by RS Prasanna, has earned ₹ 262.75 crore globally in 31 days. Its overseas collection stood at ₹ 65.25 crore, while its India gross was ₹ 197.5 crore.
Sitaare Zameen Par is the Bollywood remake of Woody Harrelson's Champions, which was inspired by the Spanish film Campeones.
It tells an inspiring story about a group of specially abled individuals who are coached by Aamir Khan's character for a basketball match.
The film also stars ten neurodivergent actors in lead roles, marking their Bollywood debut. Aroush Datta as Satbir
Gopi Krishnan Varma as Guddu
Vedant Sharmaa as Bantu
Naman Misra as Hargovind
Rishi Shahani as Sharmaji
Rishabh Jain as Raju
Ashish Pendse as Sunil Gupta
Samvit Desai as Karim Qureshi
Simran Mangeshkar as Golu Khan
Aayush Bhansali as Lotus
Sitaare Zameen Par stars Genelia D'Souza as its female lead.
Aamir Khan reportedly has a very different plan for Sitaare Zameen Par.
Instead of selling the streaming rights to any major OTT service, the actor will likely release the movie on YouTube for a pay-per-view fee, to allow him to have full control over its release window and pricing.
While trade analyst Komal Nahta said the actor is taking a stand against the current trend of early digital releases in the hope of restoring the theatre-going culture in India.

Watch: 1,000 years of Rajendra Chola-I's Gangetic Expedition

The heart of Tamil Nadu beats with memory and pride this week, as it marks 1,000 years since one of the greatest military expeditions in Indian history — when the legendary Chola emperor Rajendra Chola I marched triumphantly to the Gangetic plains, carrying Tamil valour across northern India and into the annals of world history. The Government of India and the Tamil Nadu Government are both commemorating this millenary moment in different ways — one focusing on spiritual and philosophical heritage, the other on restoration and public history. This is more than a festival. It's a chance to reflect — on who we were, and who we continue to be. What's this historic event all about? Script & Presentation: D. Suresh Kumar Videography: Shiva Raj S Production: Shibu Narayan

Johnny Lever SLAMS Modern Comedians For Vulgarity: ‘No Aukaat To Stand Before Us'

Johnny Lever criticizes today's comedians and actors for relying on vulgar jokes and Hollywood-style humour. He says real talent lies in clean comedy. Veteran comedian Johnny Lever, a name synonymous with clean, family-friendly humour for over four decades, has expressed his concern over the increasing reliance on vulgarity and double entendre in both films and stand-up comedy today. In a candid interview with actress Kunickaa Sadanand on her YouTube channel, Lever shared his disappointment with the shifting sensibilities in Indian comedy, blaming the growing influence of Hollywood and the erosion of cultural nuance. 'People are freely abusing today because of Hollywood films," Lever observed. 'In the West, it's common to use foul language and make crass jokes, and now our actors and comedians are copying that. They've developed a habit. They only watch English films now." Kunickaa echoed his sentiment, noting, 'A lot of them don't even know Hindi properly anymore." Lever, who has acted in over 300 films across a career that spans generations, believes that this unfiltered comedic style has become the norm rather than the exception. 'They pick up exact things from Hollywood, thinking, 'Chal jayega, kya farq padta hai.' That's how double meaning jokes have become so common." Turning his critique toward the current stand-up comedy scene, Lever didn't mince words. 'Most of today's stand-up content is full of double meanings. But when we were trained in the craft, we were taught never to take that route. If we start speaking double meaning, these new guys won't even be able to stand before us. But we never chose that path." In a pointed remark that seemed both a challenge and a call for introspection, Lever added, 'If they are really talented, I challenge them—say something clean and still make people laugh. That is the real test. I'm not saying they're bad, people are enjoying their content. But I have a family audience. I have to be answerable to that." He also took pride in the fact that his daughter, Jamie Lever, who has carved her own space in the comedy world, upholds the same values. 'She does solo shows too and doesn't rely on vulgarity," he said with evident pride. Ironically, Lever's latest screen appearance was in the fifth installment of the Housefull franchise, a film that drew criticism for its heavy use of innuendos and over-the-top crass humour—an unfortunate alignment with the very trend he critiques.
