Aamir Khan’s upcoming film, ‘Sitaare Zameen Par,’ faces controversy following its trailer release. Netizens accuse it of being a direct copy of the 2023 Hollywood film ‘Champions,’ itself a remake of a Spanish movie. The film portrays a disgraced basketball coach ordered to train a team of individuals with autism.
The trailer for Sitaare Zameen Par ‘, featuring Aamir Khan in the lead role, was released on Tuesday. The 3-minute-long clip introduces viewers to a once-famous basketball coach who’s had a major fall from grace. After getting into trouble with the police and showing an insensitive attitude, he is ordered by the court to coach a group of people on the autism spectrum , along with a monetary fine.
Aamir’s production house described the film in a playful line: “1 Tingu Basketball Coach, 10 Toofani SITAARE aur unki journey.” Genelia Deshmukh plays his love interest in the story, adding a touch of romance to the sports drama.
