Aamir Khan says he shot Sitaare Zameen Par climax in Gujarat’s Vadodara

Aamir Khan celebrated Republic Day by visiting the Statue of Unity in Gujarat. During his visit, the actor shared that he shot the climax of his next film, Sitaare Zamean Par, in Vadodara. He also spoke about his fond memories associated with Vadodara, where his father shot several films, and added that he would love to come back to the state to shoot more films.

Addressing the media, Aamir Khan shared, “The sequel to Taare Zameen Par is Sitaare Zameen Par, and the climax of that movie was shot in Vadodara.”

Aamir Khan, at the Republic Day celebration, further recalled fond memories of Gujarat. “When I was young, many of my father’s films were shot in Gujarat. I was very small at that time, so I would come here. Today, all those memories have come rushing back,” he said. He also added, “There have been a lot of changes in Vadodara. There are many luxurious buildings now, and the roads have improved significantly. When I first came here, I was probably around 12 years old. A lot of changes have taken place in this area since then.”

“Gujarat has been closely associated with filmmaking for a long time. It is a very vibrant place, with a strong connection to cinema, culture, and art. From the film industry’s side, we would definitely love to come here and shoot,” he added.

Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par is a sequel to his 2007 blockbuster, Taare Zameen Par, co-starring Darsheel Safary. It was scheduled to be released in Christmas 2024. However, the film was delayed and is now supposed to release mid-2025.
