Aamir Khan’s next film project is reportedly an official adaptation of the Spanish sports dramedy, Champions, which was released in 2018. The film is about a former basketball coach who is sentenced to community service and has to train a team of players with intellectual disabilities. The film was a hit in Spain and won several awards, including three Goya Awards for Best Film, Best New Actor, and Best Original Song.
According to sources, Aamir Khan‘s version of the film will be directed by RS Prassana, who has previously made films like Kalyana Samayal Saadham and Shubh Mangal Saavdhan. The film is tentatively titled Sitaare Zameen Par, which is similar to the title of Aamir Khan’s 2007 film, Taare Zameen Par. The reason for this choice is that the film will also explore the bond between the coach and the specially-abled players, much like the teacher-student relationship in Taare Zameen Par.

Champions remake to clash with Welcome 3
The film is expected to go on floors in January 2024 and release on Christmas 2024, which is a slot that Aamir Khan has often dominated with his previous films. The film will clash with Welcome to the Jungle, which is a sequel to the 2007 comedy film Welcome. This will be a repeat of history, as Taare Zameen Par also clashed with Welcome in 2007.
The casting for the other characters in the film is still underway and no official announcement has been made yet. However, fans are already excited about the project and are curious to see how Aamir Khan will portray the role of the coach and what message he will convey through the film.
