Akshay Kumar’s Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is all set to entertain the Chinese audiences. The film will be released in more than 4,300 screens across the country on June 8.
Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, a film based on the need of toilets for women in rural and undeveloped urban areas, is the fourth Hindi film to release in China in 2018, with a huge number of screens allotted to the film for its release.
The year 2018 has been the year of Bollywood to showcase some of its best films of all time in China, which has proved to be the biggest overseas market for Hindi films after the success of Dangal.
‘Toilet…’ was both commercially and critically successful in its lifetime run in India with critics praising the theme of the film and performances of the cast.
Interestingly, the film has also come up with a new poster just for the release of the film in China. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the new poster on his social media handles.

Apart from Toilet… other Hindi films that released in China made a fortune by scoring big numbers at the box office in the neighbouring country. 2018 witnessed the release of Secret Superstar, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Hindi Medium in China, all of which were hugely successful in the country.
Within the first six months of 2018 India has officially released five Indian films in China (Tamil film Baahubali 2 excluded from the list of Hindi films) and it will be interesting to see how the latest offering from Bollywood will perform at the box office after financially successful films like Dangal and Secret Superstar.
Directed by Raj Shree Narayan, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha stars Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar in the lead roles.
