• Episode 2 - Sitaare Zameen Par (2025)
    Jun 29 2025

    In this episode of The BoM Podcast – A Bollywood Podcast, we review Sitaare Zameen Par—Aamir Khan’s latest film that brings back heart, honesty, and social relevance to Hindi cinema.

    We dive into why this movie stands out in today’s Bollywood landscape filled with remakes, lazy sequels, and misogynistic tropes. From its core message that everyone has their own normal, to its emotional storytelling and commitment to inclusivity, Sitaare Zameen Par feels like a breath of fresh air.

    🎙️ In this episode, we discuss:

    • Why this film needed to be made
    • How it reflects a more thoughtful direction for mainstream Bollywood
    • The contrast between meaningful stories vs. formula-driven, objectifying films
    • Aamir Khan’s role in reshaping the narrative—and our thoughts on his performance
    • And as always, our Mast Meter rating 🎧

    This one’s for the viewers who’ve been craving soul, purpose, and progress in Hindi cinema.
