President of India lauds Taare Zameen Par It's been almost three months since Aamir Khan's maiden directorial venture Taare Zameen Par hit theatres, but the film still continues to stay in news.

The President even asked Aamir Khan to arrange a special screening but somehow or the other it kept getting postponed.
