Not just this, he has other legal woes as well, and as an alternative to jail time, he is asked to serve community service. This service entailed the task of coaching a team of neurodivergent athletes, and from there, the real magic began.Directed by RS Prasanna, the film sees Genelia D’Souza alongside Aamir Khan. Further, there are 10 new faces that made their debut in the movie: 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
With a rating of 3 stars, an excerpt from the TOI review reads – “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 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.”
