It was earlier reported that the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) requested the makers to modify Sitaare Zameen Par and cut two scenes from the film. However, this was not accepted by Aamir Khan, who is also the producer of the movie. Insiders in the know reported that the actor set up a personal meeting with the CBFC officials to explain his side of the story to them.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The CBFC have asked for two cuts. Aamir Khan feels the film should be passed without these cuts. He and director R.S. Prasanna have made the film with a lot of thought. Certain scenes and dialogues, when seen in context, seem completely appropriate.” While the exact nature of the scenes that CBFC wanted to be cut remains unknown, both parties seem to have reached an agreement. Sitaare Zameen Par received the CBFC clearance on June 16 and will hit the big screens on June 20, as planned.
