Ayushmann-starrer Andhadhun has earned more than $47 million at the China box office. According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film’s performance was slowed down by the release of Avengers: Endgame, but it has still done well. Andhadhun is the third highest grossing film in China.
The film, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Tabu and Radhika Apte, crossed the Rs 200 crore mark within 13 days of its release in the country.
It released on April 3 in China under the title Piano Player.
“We had no idea that our little ‘experimental film’ would travel so much. Experimental doesn’t mean no fun. The film, I learn, is screening in both subtitled and dubbed versions in different screens. My whole team is super thrilled,”Sriram Raghavan
The critically-acclaimed film, produced by Sanjay Routray's Matchbox Pictures, ran successfully for over 75 days, earning over Rs 100 crore after its release in October 2018 back home in India.
Last week, AndhaDhun opened the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA) and also received a standing ovation in the presence of Tabu, Sriram and Sanjay.
"This April has been especially exciting for all of us at Matchbox Pictures. We are overjoyed that his (Sriram) vision and our film is being celebrated across the world now," Sanjay said.
