While the film exceeded advance booking figures, usually a good sign, the film registered an average opening day business and earned a little more than 11 crore.

Amid this, Vir hailed the comedy timings of the film and called it ‘genuinely funny.’

He wrote, “Folks! Go see #SitaareZameenPar Not just because it’s REALLY good and breezy. Not just because the ensemble wins your heart. Not just because it’s someone of massive stature constantly sharing his platform for meaningful content. Not just because it’s a departure from the action overload. But also because it’s genuinely funny.”

Sitaare Zameen Par also stars Genelia D'Souza. It marks the acting debut of 10 neurodivergent actors--Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.

Vir Das further tagged Aamir's production house who helm the project and added about the film: “In a comedy scene one party has to hold power and drive. That’s basic comedy 101. The best comedy surprises you with that choice. It wears its heart on its sleeve and gives power, prominence, and punch lines to those comedy normally doesn’t. That makes it WAY funnier. Go see it! In theatres now. @AKPPL_Official”
