Aamir plays his teacher in the movie which he calls a "tribute" to kids.
The actor had to hunt for a long time for a child artiste before he finally zeroed in on the student of Shiamak Davar's dance institute SPIDA.
The script was brought to Aamir by Amol Gupte, who also started off as the film's director before Aamir took over. Aamir's website will soon reveal the first look of "Taare Zameen Par".
