See how IB Sports Academy brought authentic grassroots basketball to the big screen alongside Aamir Khan.

Our collaboration with Aamir Khan Productions for 'Sitaare Zameen Par' was a major milestone. This blog announcement shares the behind the scenes story of how our academy became part of this powerful film.

We celebrated the movie's release with a special screening for over 70 of our student-athletes and coaches. It was an unforgettable experience to see our hard work, and even our head coach, on the big screen.

Being part of 'Sitaare Zameen Par' wasn't just about the cameo; it was a testament to the discipline and technical fundamentals we teach every day at IB Sports Academy. When Aamir Khan wanted real basketball movement and authentic coaching intensity, he turned to our academy. This is the same level of focus and hands-on guidance you receive in our regular sessions at Dwarka. We don't just teach the sport; we teach the grind.
