Taare Zameen Par (also known as "Like Stars on Earth") is a drama film directed by Aamir Khan. The story centers around Ishaan Awasthi, an 8-year-old boy who struggles with dyslexia. Ishaan's difficulties in school lead his parents to send him to a boarding school, where he feels isolated and misunderstood. The turning point comes when a new art teacher, Ram Shankar Nikumbh (played by Aamir Khan), joins the school. Nikumbh recognizes Ishaan's condition and helps him discover his true potential through art. The film beautifully portrays the challenges faced by children with learning disabilities and emphasizes the importance of understanding and nurturing their unique talents. It's a touching and inspirational film that raises awareness about dyslexia and the need for empathy in education. Have you watched it before, or are you planning to watch it soon?

1. Aamir Khan received special permission from Amitabh Bachchan to use Abhishek Bachchan's experiences in the film. The reference is made in terms of Abhishek being one of the most successful stars and how he came to star in the blockbuster Dhoom (2004), overcoming dyslexia that he had during childhood.
2. Amole Gupte, the creative director, created most of the paintings credited to Ishaan.
3. Darsheel Safary, the child artiste of the film, had to face a lot of opposition from his school when he was shortlisted for the film. The fact that he would have to miss school for such a long period did not go down well with the school authorities. However, Aamir Khan insisted that only Darsheel play the character, so he came up with a solution to fix the problem. He assured the school authorities that Darsheel's studies wouldn't be hindered. Aamir arranged for personal tuition for Darsheel all through the academic year so that he wouldn't miss his exams. He also funded his studies as well as his educational expenses.
4. Noted artist Samir Mondal made three paintings for Aamir Khan for this film and did not charge anything for them. His works normally sell in the range of Rs. 100,000 to 700,000, depending on the size of the painting.
5. The International Dyslexia Association screened Taare Zameen Par on October 29, 2008, in Seattle, where it was met with a standing ovation.
6. The house where Ram (Aamir Khan) places Ishaan's scratch-built boat/airplane model on his side table next to his own parents' photo is Aamir Khan's actual house in Panchgani. The actor bought some land there to develop.

8. Salman Khan is credited with suggesting the movie's title to Aamir Khan when they both met at a party.
9. Darsheel Safary, the 11-year-old star of the film, is a part of Shiamak Davar's dance troupe. During one of the classes, he saw a poster that read, "Hunting for a naughty kid. If you're selected, you will get a chance to act with Aamir Khan." He thought that it would be great if he were able to get the part. During the same class, Amole Gupte spotted him and asked him to go for an audition. Eventually, he got selected.
10. Legendary actor Guru Dutt's younger sister and 'Kalpana Lajmi''s mother, 75-year-old Lalitha Lajmi, made her acting debut with this film.
