January 29, 2015 20:43

As Aamir Khan's blockbuster film 'PK' gears up for its release in the multi-billion dollar Chinese market, director Rajkumar Hirani says the movie will be a great success in Communist China as its controversial religious theme can resonate well with the audience.

Hirani, who was in Beijing to ensure that all legal formalities are completed, told Indian media that the officials and members of Chinese film industry approached the producers of 'PK' to get it released here.

"They saw the film and they themselves invited us because of '3 Idiots' success. They are giving us a 3,000 screen release which is as big as in India," he said.
