Aamir Khan releases ‘for free’ Taare Zameen Par on his YouTube channel
Aamir Khan proferrs to release Taare Zameen Par for FREE on his YouTube channel for 1-2 weeks
Aamir Khan is all set for release of his much-anticipated film Sitaare Zameen Par which is in the news for many reasons- one of it being that Aamir plans to release it on YouTube after its theatrical run and not on any OTT platform. As part of the promotions of the film, he organized a Taare Zameen Par Fan Meetup featuring the team of the 2007 classic in the presence of hundreds of fans. Interestingly, another YouTube connection emerged with regards to Taare Zameen Par at this event.
As per host Maheshwari in the scene where Aamir Khan is seen with a boat, the photograph seen in the room is that of the actor’s mother and father, as per trivia on the internet. Aamir Khan clarified, “No, that isn’t his mom and dad. He guesses, it is someone else’s mom and dad (smiles)!
Maybe it’s Amole Gupte’s parents. He doesn’t know. But certainly not like his parents at all.
It was the cherished wish of the host to show the scene but then revealed that he couldn’t do so as Taare Zameen Par is not available on any streaming platform.
Aamir Khan agreed, “Yes, the film is not anywhere.” He then said, “Par there free of cost. It can be available for 1-2 weeks.” The audience clapped loudly, indicating that they approved of the idea.
Aamir Khan was then joined by Darsheel Safary, Tisca Chopra and Vipin Sharma and they went down memory lane. Aamir Khan revealed, “For a scene, there was a tear on my face; he didn’t want it. Hence, they removed it. But now, with VFX, such changes are a cakewalk.
Darsheel Safary spoke about the song ‘Bumm Bumm Bole’, “It was a great experience shooting this song for sir. He was the only one who couldn’t dance. You can see Aamir being upset in the song. He was upset in real life too as everyone around him was dancing. Shiamak Davar himself had come to choreograph the song and he was upset about it. Later on, Aamir and himself did dance together.
Aamir Khan talked highly of Darsheel, “When he used to explain the shot to him, he used to keep dancing continuously and Aamir used to not mind it as he knew he was absorbing the entire scene wasn’t distracted. As soon as theyb.would go for a take, Aamir would get into character immediately.
Vipin Sharma opened up, “After the film, wherever he used to go, people used to say, ‘Where is Darsheel? You didn’t bring him’. Darsheel was asked the same question.
Vipin raised laughs as he said, “He used to call him Vipin; it was the most cherished memory of the shoot! One day, Aamir came in the vanity van. He sat on Vipin’s lap and told him, ‘Vipin, they (people in the unit) will go to hell’. Vipin asked, ‘Why’. He said, ‘They are all eating chicken. You are a vegetarian. You and me are safe’!
A visibly embarrassed Darsheel Safary clarified, he was 8 years old then!
Vipin Sharma, on a serious note, added, he isn’t married and doesn’t have a family. He never experienced what it means to have a child. He (Darsheel) gave him (Aam).that experience to feel like a father. He will always be there for him!” As expected, Darsheel was quite touched by this confession and so were all the attendees.
