Summary:

• Aamir Khan moves all his produced films from OTT platforms to YouTube pay-per-view.

• Rentals priced between ₹50-₹75, including hits like Lagaan, Dangal, and Taare Zameen Par.

All of the Aamir Khan-produced films are now available for pay-per-view on his Aamir Khan Talkies YouTube page.

The list of films currently available for rent includes:

Taare Zameen Par – ₹75

Taare Zameen Par tells the story of Ishaan (Darsheel Safary), a young boy who is misunderstood and viewed as irresponsible and unruly. However, his fortunes change when a new art teacher (Aamir Khan) sees his learning disability and encourages him to embrace his unique talents.

Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na – ₹50

Jai (Imran Khan) and Aditi (Genelia Deshmukh), best friends for life despite their polar contrasts, refuse to acknowledge they're perfect for each other in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na—until real-life circumstances make them face their feelings.

Peepli [LIVE] – ₹50

Poignantly satirising politics, media, and rural hardship, Peepli [LIVE] shows how the system uses a poor farmer's (Omkar Das Manikpuri) possible suicide as a national spectacle—exposing how they profit, gain power, and boost ratings—from tragedies.

Lagaan – ₹75

The epic underdog story Lagaan takes place in colonial India, in a drought-stricken town that faces exorbitant levies from the British and must win a cricket match to escape. Unfamiliar with the game, a young farmer, Bhuvan (Aamir Khan), rallies his fellow villagers in a daring, united, and hopeful struggle.

Secret Superstar – ₹50

As she fights against abuse, sexism, and societal conventions to pursue her aspirations, Secret Superstar follows Insia (Zaira Wasim), a talented 15-year-old girl. Thanks to her mother's calm strength and her talent, she becomes a sensation while hiding behind a veil and an identity on YouTube. Her mother (Meher Vij) is the real hero of her journey.

Dangal – ₹75

Dangal is based on the life of Mahavir Singh Phogat (Aamir Khan), a retired wrestler who trained his daughters, Geeta (Fatima Sana Shaikh) and Babita (Sanya Malhotra), achieve his dream of them becoming professional wrestlers. Thanks to Mahavir's unwavering faith and strict coaching, they became champions despite societal pressure and gender stereotypes.

This move is part of Aamir Khan’s strategy to gain more control over distribution and revenue. To reach more people, particularly in less-populated places without easy access to theatres or OTT services, Khan has opted to use YouTube's massive user base and pay-per-view model.

The first step towards this more extensive distribution was the experiment of releasing Sitaare Zameen Par as an independent pay-per-view event. Aamir's team swiftly resolved several early technical difficulties, such as inaccurate pricing for some device users.

Along with this change comes a renewed commitment to addressing piracy head-on by swiftly deleting any illegal uploads. From a financial perspective, the pay-per-view model might produce consistent income over time, providing an option apart from the conventional one-time OTT licence agreements.
