Sitaare Zameen Par
Aamir Khan`s Sitaare Zameen Par is all set to hit the silver screen on June 20, 2025. The anticipation for the film is high given the success of its spiritual successor, 2008`s Taare Zameen Par. Besides, the topic of the film has also impressed many, raising intrigue. Ahead of its release, the film received a clearance certificate from the Censor Board after some reported back and forth. Now latest reports share the changes that the film was asked to make in order for it to be released smoothly.
According to recent reports, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) reportedly asked the makers of Sitaare Zameen Par to replace a reference to late pop icon `Michael Jackson` with the word `Lovebirds`. In addition to this, it also asked them to change the word `Businesswoman` to `Businessperson` to make it more gender neutral.
The Censor Board also reportedly asked the makers to add a quote by Prime Minister Narendra Modi right at the beginning of the film, before the disclaimer. The board also did not permit the makers to use a visual which had the word `Kamal` written in it, citing reasons of political sensitivity.
