Salman Khan, Anushka Sharma's 'Sultan' is getting China release
The movie will hit theatres in China on August 31.
Salman Khan-Anushka Sharma-starrer Sultan is all set to release in China on August 31, two years after its release in India.
Yash Raj Films has collaborated with distribution company E Stars China for a release in the country, which has emerged as a new market for Hindi films thanks to the success of
Aamir Khan's Dangal and Secret Superstar and Irrfan-starrer Hindi Medium.
The movie will be screened in over 11,000 screens, targeting around 40,000 shows a day, said a release.
Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the film revolves around a wrestler who comes from a self-imposed retirement to win back the love of his life.
"Every time a film releases and a newer set of audiences see it, you get a different perspective altogether. China is a fast-growing market for Indian Cinema. I'm really excited and looking forward to people's reaction to Sultan in China," Zafar said in a statement.
Avtar Panesar, Vice President, International Operations, YRF, added, "China is without a doubt the new frontier for Indian cinema today and our collective successes there ratifies the belief that art has no boundaries/borders."
