Taare Zameen Par is India's official entry to the Oscars. Taare Zameen Par (or TZP) stars Aamir Khan and Darsheel Safary and is the second Aamir Khan movie to go for the Oscars. His movie Lagaan had been nominated to the Top 5 in the Foreign Films category. The movie is from Aamir Khan Productions and is directed by Aamir Khan

TZP, the movie is on a dyslexia affected child who is otherwise naughty and normal. The movie is a heartwarming story on the trauma faced by the child because of his problems in reading. The boy (portrayed brilliantly by Darsheel Safary) feels weighed down by the expectations of his parents who without understanding his dyslexic state think him to be unruly and disobedient. He is finally sent to a boarding school where one sees the complete transformation of a happy, cheeky boy to a brooding unhappy child...until one teacher begins to understand him and forms a friendship with him.

As is usual in Hindi movies, the film has lots of songs, some great music by Shankar Ehsaan Loy with heart rending lyrics by Prasoon Joshi, with Bum Bum Bole and Maa being very very good.

Taare Zameen Par also got the 2008 Filmfare Awards for Best Movie, Best Director, Best Lyrics, Best Supporting Actor (Aamir- who else!), Critics Award For Best Actor (Darsheel Safary).
