Sitaare Zameen Par Box Office Collection Day 20: As Aamir Khan’s movie nears the end of its three-week run in theatres, Sitaare Zameen Par has managed to maintain a steady hold at the Indian box office. The movie maintained its momentum, keeping its earnings over ₹1 crore each day in Week 3.
Sitaare Zameen Par is facing fierce competition from Anurag Basu’s Metro In Dino and two Hollywood biggies—Jurassic World Rebirth and Brad Pitt’s F1. All these movies target the urban audience.
It remains to be seen how Aamir’s “no OTT” policy will fare for Sitaare Zameen Par.

No OTT approach
Aamir Khan reportedly has a very different plan for Sitaare Zameen Par.
Instead of selling the streaming rights to any major OTT service, the actor will likely release the movie on YouTube for a pay-per-view fee, to allow him to have full control over its release window and pricing.
While trade analyst Komal Nahta said the actor is taking a stand against the current trend of early digital releases in the hope of restoring the theatre-going culture in India.
