In China Toilet Ek Prem Katha earna Rs.39.85 cr for 2 days

Akshay Kumar-Bhumi Pednekar starrer Toilet Ek Prem Katha has reached the number one spot at the China box office. The drama-comedy flick with a social message achieved the feat on the second day of its release itself. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted the film’s business figures in China.

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, which opened in the China box office on Friday, is a ‘much larger’ release than previous releases Hindi Medium and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. The Akshay Kumar-Bhumi Pednekar starrer is being screened in 11,500 screens across the country with approximately 56,000 shows every day, according to film critic Taran Adarsh.

A huge section of the industry was not too confident of the film’s business in China due to the rural concern it addresses in the film. However, these recent figures have shown a different story. Toilet Ek Prem Katha, a satirical comedy in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s campaign to improve sanitation conditions in India, had hit the domestic box office in August 2017. It became one of the top grossers of 2017 by doing a business of Rs 134.22 crore in India alone.
