Aamir Khan promotes Dangal in China ahead of release

Basking in the success of his movies 3 Idiots, Dhoom 3 and PK in China, a rare feat for an Indian film actor, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is now promoting his recent outing Dangal.

While his 3 Idiots was a big hit, especially among students and parents, PK too became a big winner grossing 100 million Yuan (USD 16.70 million approx)


It was a bit surprise for Aamir, who told the media here that none of his films were a success in China, until the release of his first collaboration with Rajkumar Hirani

He said: "Films featuring top artists from both the countries could bring the two nations close."

A large number of Aamir's fans turned up to watch the preview of the Chinese version of Dangal in Beijing.

The Nitish Tiwari-directed movie will release in China next month

The 51-year-old actor will also visit Shanghai and Chengdu to promote his film

Recently, China has increased the quota of Indian films to be screened from two to four, after joint productions Kung Fu Yoga and Buddies in India fared well at the box office during the Chinese New Year.
