Barely three days after its much-anticipated launch in China, Rajkumar Hirani’s Aamir Khan-starrer PK is already breaking box-office records for a Bollywood film in the country.
As of Monday, the film had raked in 35 million yuans (`35 crore) in just three days after its Friday launch.
“This is record-breaking for an Indian film in China,” Gu Wancheng, partner (market strategy) for NPRG, the Chinese firm which introduced the movie to distributors here, told Mail Today.
Gu said prior to PK, the top-grossing Indian film was Dhoom 3. That film took in 19 million yuans through its entire release in China. “PK had made that amount by its second day alone,” Gu said.
Not only that, at the domestic box office, PK has now surpassed every Chinese film currently showing, and is second only to Avengers: Age of Ultron.This weekend, PK even outdid Avengers in terms of occupancy, taking the number one spot with 25 per cent. The film currently has 18,000 shows in China.
