About Taare Zameen Par, the Lagaan actor added, “Taare Zameen Par was about a child who has dyslexia. So it is a film that explored the themes of challenges of multiple intelligences, and how we are quick to judge people based on their written and reading IQ. Whereas people have multiple intelligences who do not get recognized often. All of us have difficulties and weakness, qualities that make us magical and unique. That theme is the theme that is taken forward in Sitaare Zameen Par,” quoted by Hindustan Times.
