A hearing perspective:

Secret Superstar is a Hindi musical drama film, featuring Zaira Wasim, Meher Vij and Aamir Khan in main roles.

The film is written and directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao.

The film introduces Insia Malik (Zaira Wasim) as a 15-year-old Muslim girl, who lives with her supportive yet submissive mother Najma Malik (Meher Vij), strict father Farookh Malik (Raj Arjun), younger brother Guddu (Kabir Sajid) and her grandmother in Vadodara.

The film shows how Insia dreams to be a singer and gets constant encouragement from her mother to follow her passion but faces restrictions from her conservative father.

An exciting journey unfolds when Insia and her close friend Chintan (Tirth Sharma) happen to cross paths with a music director Shakti Kumaarr (Aamir Khan).

Film explores innocence of teenage friendships or romance

Secret Superstar also looks at how celebrities are misunderstood by common public because of their negative media portrayals. It also touches upon domestic violence and its effects on children’s minds. It tries to show how seeing her mother getting physically and emotionally abused by her father gives Insia the strength and courage to work towards her aim and improve her life.

Secret Superstar movie is a must-watch for Zaira Wasim’s brilliant performance, Meher’s touching emotional act, Aamir’s small yet memorable work and Advait Chandan’s confident directing debut. Appreciate all the soundtracks sung by Meghna Mishra, especially “Nachdi Phira” and “Meri Pyaari Ammi” are my favorites.

I’m going with four out of five stars.
