How beautiful it would be to see children the way Ram Shankar Nikumbh saw Ishaan !

Aamir Khan’s directorial debut, Taare Zameen Par,  is not merely about dyslexia. It is about sight. About perspective. About the audacity to believe in a child when no one else does. Sometimes all it takes is one person to believe, before we could even believe in ourselves. 

Inspired by the real-life memory of Akira Kurosawa’s art teacher, this film dares to ask: what happens when we stop forcing children to fit and begin to see the worlds they carry within? Through Ram Shankar Nikumbh’s eyes, we learn to look—truly look—at the ‘Ishaans’ around us.

Taare Zameen Par, becomes not just a film about a child’s struggle in his home and school. It’s a call to every teacher, parent, and viewer—to live by faith, not by sight.

To teachers who praised broken crayons. To parents learning to listen. To children still waiting to be discovered.

Because some stars are not above us. They are among us. Taare Zameen Par.
