He continued sharing, saying that, “after being part of ‘Laapataa Ladies’ writing team, and now ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’, I can assure that while he remains involved, there is no interference”.He also elaborated how, as long as there is trust with the actor, things on set often go smoothly, and also mentioned how, due to this, there was “zero interference” from Khan’s end. He elaborated, saying, “Even if he has a counterpoint, it never came from Aamir Khan as there was room for discussion and debate, and he was even more than willing to concede”.

While talking about the actor, Divy also revealed how Aamir has respect for what is written for the movie. He shared, “He is one of the few actors who respects the written word. Even if he had to change a comma, he would ask the writer, and not once did he impose himself on the director”.
