Every one aspires to do something in life which they dream of but there are very few who struggle and fight to achieve it and keep them alive. Secret Superstar inspires and touches the right chord which will win your heart.

Secret Superstar tells the story of Insia (Zaira Wasim) who aspires to become a singer one day but is swayed away by abusive father who stands in way to achieve her dream.

First time director Advait Chandan will blow your mind with a powerful and engaging drama. The film, simple and yet powerful, goes on to prove that a talented person cannot be stopped if supported by the right people and at right time. The film charms its way through the very beginning and each and every frame has been perfectly shot (right from the make-up to the background score). While first half has its glorious moments (Pyaari Ammi song will make you teary eyes), second half opens with a bang with entry of Aamir Khan who will bring down the house with his outstanding comic acts. The film does have its share of flaw as well. Few scenes where Insia easily gets famous in a matter of seconds and is even nominated for Best Singer Award is little hard to digest. Also, the editing takes a back seat in the second half and should been trimmed for few minutes. Nevertheless, the film never loses its track and overall satisfaction will compensate for few shortcomings. Songs are nice especially "Main Kaun Hoon" and "Pyaari Ammi". Kiddos to Amit Trivedi for giving us beautiful tracks as always. Art direction is great while Cinematography is splendid. Screenplay (also written by Advait Chandan) is good while casting is perfect.

Aamir Khan is one such actor whose name is good enough to ensure a good quality cinema but Secret Superstar belongs to the actual superstar Zaira Wasim. The "Dangal" actress has proved once again that she is here to stay and should go a long way in terms of acting. The charming actress emotes expressively and her bonding with Meher Vij (Insia's mother) is phenomenal. Coming to Meher Vij, the "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" actress is simply mind-blowing. Hats off to her performance. I also liked the young actor playing the role of Chintan. Finally, talking about Aamir Khan - just one word comes to mind - Brilliant. The "method-actor" proved once again that he can do any role in the world. Aamir is amazing and his comic act will remind you of Rangeela.

Overall, Secret Superstar is encourages you to chase your passion and live your dream. Excellent 4/5
