Aamir on why viewers should back all kinds of films
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Aamir spoke about why it’s important for audiences to support different kinds of stories, especially just days after ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ released in cinemas. He pointed out that if people watch only action films, then even filmmakers will end up focusing only on such stories.

Aamir said, “People love stories. All kinds of stories. If you only support action films, that’s all filmmakers will make. And then you will have to watch only action movies in theatres. If you like all types of films and want to watch all types of films, go to theatres. Your support gives creators the freedom to tell diverse stories."

He further explained how the audience’s choices directly shape the kind of films that get made. “Studios often command us to make a certain kind of film, and we have to follow. But when audiences back unique stories, it gives us the strength to create what’s in our hearts,” he added. Aamir’s honest words highlight why viewers should step out and support all kinds of cinema, so that filmmakers have the courage to bring fresh, heartfelt stories to life.
