Aamir Khan shares why audience should ‘back unique stories’ days after Sitaare Zameen Par’s release: ‘If you only…’ | Bollywood-OxBig News Network

Aamir Khan talks about stories liked by cinema-goers

Aamir opened up on why the audience should support “unique stories” days after Sitaare Zameen Par hit the theatres. He said, “People love stories. All kinds of stories. If you only support action films, that’s all filmmakers will make. And then you will have to watch only action movies in theatres. If you like all types of films and want to watch all types of films, go to theatres. Your support gives creators the freedom to tell diverse stories.”

“Studios often command us to make a certain kind of film, and we have to follow. But when audiences back unique stories, it gives us the strength to create what’s in our hearts,” he added.

HT review of Sitaare Zameen Par

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Overall, Sitaare Zameen Par is a heartfelt product, meant to be experienced in a packed theatre. The collective laughter, the silent sniffles, and more, enhance the film’s impact. It may not shine as brightly as its predecessor, but these Sitaare light up the screen in their own beautiful way.”
