Aamir Khan’s THOUGHTFUL gesture; APOLOGIZES with | Indian Movie News
Aamir Khan made a path-breaking announcement right now, July 29, at a five-star resort in Mumbai that he’ll release his current hit movie, Sitaare Zameen Par, on YouTube. The famous person has opted for a pay-per-view model, that is, one will pay Rs. 100 movie to rent the movie. Discussions about such a mode had been going on even before the movie was out. Aamir was requested about it, but he denied any such plans to many journalists. To all these experiences, Aamir Khan, as a considerate gesture, apologized for mendacity.
Aamir Khan started by saying, “To all those journalists who asked me whether my film was coming on YouTube and I denied the same, I’d like to fold my hands and apologize for lying. Main kuch aur bol nahin paa raha tha. I wanted to protect the theatrical business. Meri shuruaat hui hai cinema se and I am very loyal to theatres. Hence, I’ll make all efforts to protect the theatrical business. Hence, while doing this experiment, we wanted to protect the theatres. As a result, I had to say that I am not bringing my film on YouTube. Woh mujhe kehna pada aur uske liye main maafi chahta hoon. Unfortunately, I had to lie. If I had not lied, mera jo sapna tha, woh wahin khatam ho jaata.”

Aamir Khan’s determination to carry Sitaare Zameen Par in just six weeks of theatrical release has also raised eyebrows, particularly when he typically rejected the thought of a movie releasing in 8 weeks on OTT. On this, he replied, “Pay-per-view model and subscription model mein zameen aasmaan ka farak hai. When I release my film after 8 weeks on a subscription model, a person who has bought a subscription to that OTT platform is not buying my film per se. He’s paying to access films available on that platform. After a few months, he’ll learn that my film is also available. He may or may not watch it. As a creative person, I’d like to take a thousand steps towards my audience. But I want my audience to take one step towards me. When we opt for a subscription model, we are, more or less, providing the film for free. Pay-per-view is the same model as the theatre. Theatre experience is different. You watch a film with 300-500 people. You laugh, cry and clap together. The theatre is equipped with Atmos sound. That is an experience and this is a different experience. In cinemas, viewers might feel more amazed. But on YouTube, viewers will have the option of convenience. Hence, it was my plan from the beginning to bring the film on YouTube at the end of its theatrical run.”

Another journalist requested on the identical traces and Aamir Khan stated, “OTT is a totally different model. Let me make it clear that I have no objection to OTT platforms. But I don’t like the arrangement that the film has to release on OTT 8 weeks after release. Hence, I moved away from it. I am not of the belief that the pay-per-view model can affect the theatrical business of my film.”
