Aamir Khan’s Sitare land equal to youtube pay-per-view model: Report
Aamir Khan’s upcoming film ‘Sitare Zameen Paar’ will be released on YouTube through a pay-per-view model, eight weeks after its dramatic release. The film introduces 10 debutant actors under the banner of Aamir Khan Productions.

Actor Aamir Khan is fully prepared to return to the big screen with his new film ‘Sitare Zameen Paar’, which will be released in theaters on June 20. Recent reports suggest that the film will leave the traditional method of OTT release. Instead of normal OTT platforms such as Netflix or Amazon Prime, Aamir plans to release the film on YouTube after a pay-per-view model. The film is expected to be available on YouTube, about eight weeks after its dramatic release.
A source said, “Aamir does not want to release his films directly on streaming after his dramatic run, as it discouns the audience from watching films on the big screen. This is also a reason why there is no streaming logo on the poster of ‘Sitare Zameen Paar’,” a source said.
“The decision includes many factors. Of course, there is a perception that non-spectacular films are better suited for OTT platforms, which have inspired them to leave them in theaters. Pay-per-view, however, makes a cinema-like urgency, because the audience will need to look at what we want to do instead of reaching through a subscription model instead of reaching through a subscription model. Know the details in weeks, “the source said.
Pay-Per-View (PPV) is a system where viewers pay a fee once to watch a specific film, show or event online instead of subscribing to streaming service. Unlike platforms such as Netflix or Amazon Prime, where you pay monthly to reach a full library, the PPV allows the audience to pay only what they want to see. It is usually used for sports matches, concerts, or special film release, and now, films such as ‘Sitare Zameen Paar’ are trying to give more flexibility to the audience.
Directed by RS Prasanna, ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ is a feel-gud film and Khan’s 2007 hit ‘Taare Zameen Par’ is a spiritual sequel. The new film stars Aamir Khan and Genelia D’Souza. While the original film was emotional and tears, Aamir says that it is full of laughter and fun.
“Well, this is a beautiful story. In fact, the easiest way I can describe that ‘Taare Zameen Paar’ is a very emotional film that cries you. ‘Sitare Zameen Paur makes you laugh, it is a comic film. It is the same subject -it is the same -it is the same -different abilities, different intelligence, or different challenges -but it is humorous. Hollywood reporter,
