Aamir Khan is all set to return to the big screen with Sitaare Zameen Par, a spiritual successor to his 2007 hit Taare Zameen Par. This time, he plays a basketball coach working with specially-abled kids. The trailer has generated a lot of excitement around the film.

However, the film has run into one last-minute hurdle. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has required two cuts, and Aamir Khan will not agree to proceed with the cuts. And because of this issue with certification, the film release may get delayed.

CBFC Asks for Two Cuts, Aamir Khan Says No

Reports suggest that the CBFC has demanded two cuts in the film before granting certification. However, according to Times Now, Aamir Khan is reportedly standing firm on his creative vision. He believes the film has been crafted with careful intent and that the scenes and dialogues in question make sense within the context of the story, and, therefore shouldn’t be altered. While there is no official word on the situation yet, the report is also being actively circulated online.
