In a heartwarming and nostalgic promotional event, Aamir Khan was spotted in Mumbai making vada pavs with the son of the late Ashok Vaidya—the man credited with creating the city’s most beloved street food. Dressed casually in a t-shirt and jeans, Aamir was seen flipping vadas and assembling pavs with a smile, engaging warmly with locals as curious onlookers and fans gathered to see the superstar in action.
The gesture wasn’t just about food—it was a clever, grounded way to connect with the masses ahead of the release of Sitaare Zameen Par, Khan’s upcoming sports comedy-drama. Directed by R. S. Prasanna and produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit, the film is a spiritual successor to his 2007 classic Taare Zameen Par. This time, the story centers around a group of intellectually disabled individuals training to compete in a national basketball tournament, with Khan playing their coach.
Also starring Genelia Deshmukh, the film is an official remake of the acclaimed Spanish film Champions (2018). From what’s been seen in the trailer, Sitaare Zameen Par promises a blend of humor, emotion, and inspiration—delivered with the signature sincerity Khan is known for. The film also brings social themes to the forefront, wrapped in a feel-good narrative that aims to both entertain and enlighten.
*Sitaare Zameen Par* is slated for a theatrical release on June 20, 2025, and events like Aamir’s vada pav-making cameo show that the actor is embracing grassroots promotions in style. As the countdown to the film’s release begins, fans can expect more meaningful, people-first moments from a star who continues to blend cinema with social connection.
