Following PM Narendra Modi's visit to China, Chinese film regulators have announced three Indo-China co-production ventures, one of which would star Aamir Khan and Jackie Chan in pivotal roles.
Coinciding with the visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to China, the Chinese film regulators have announced three films that will amalgamate Chinese martial arts and Indian culture. Among the actors, Jackie Chan and Aamir Khan have been finalised to play the leads in one of the films.
The three films announced are commissioned under an agreement that was made between the two countries and was signed during President Xi Jinping's visit to India last year. The first film titled Kung Fu Yoga will star Jackie Chan and Aamir Khan in lead roles while the second film will be based on the life of a noted Buddhist monk Xuan Zang. Wong Kar Wai will be the executive producer for the film, which revolves around Zang's journey to India to study Buddhism. The third film, titled Da Nao Tian Zhu will be helmed by Chinese star Wang Baoqiang.
Kung Fu Yoga will be a combination of Chinese martial arts and Indian culture, hence the name Kung Fu Yoga. While Kung Fu is one of the most prominent martial arts technique in China, Indians resort to Yoga to maintain physical and cultural well being of the body.
With the Indo-Chinese agreement coming across, it would also open bigger avenues for Bollywood films in China and vice versa. Recently, news about the grand release of Aamir Khan's PK in China started doing the rounds and with Khan and Chan coalescing together for the Indo-Chinese film, Indian films will now get an easy access to China and a quota system might be created for imported films too.
