Sitaare Zameen Par box office prediction day 1: Aamir Khan¡¯s film may earn Rs 12 crore in India

Sitaare Zameen Par box office prediction day 1: Sitaare Zameen Par, one of the most eagerly-awaited films of the month, hit the screens today (June 20) much to the delight of movie buffs. The film has created a fair deal of buzz among Aamir Khan¡¯s ardent fans as it is his first release after Laal Singh Chaddha, which hit the screens in 2022. This is expected to help it take a fair start at the domestic box office.

Sitaare Zameen Par to open to a decent response

Aamir Khan is in the limelight because of his latest film Sitaare Zameen Par, which arrived in theatres today. According to Ramesh Bala, a trade analyst, the sports comedy drama is likely to collect around Rs 12 crore (nett) in India on the first day.

¡°I think it can do around Rs 12 crore today. He has a good following in the south too, especially in the metros. The Southern states will add to the collection, especially on the weekends. The word-of-mouth will be important,¡± he told Indiatimes.

If this estimate holds, Sitaare Zameen Par will open in the same range as Laal Singh Chaddha. The Advait Chandan-helmed drama earned Rs 11.6 crore on its first day. The Forrest Gump remake, however, was not able to sustain as it received negative reviews and ended up being a flop.

Sitaare Zameen Par is releasing alongside Dhanush¡¯s Kuberaa and Danny Boyle¡¯s 28 years later.
