China: The Ayushmann-Tabu starrer became third highest-grossing Indian film
Interestingly, this isn't the first international release for the thriller. The movie was also released in China this year as The Piano Player, and it received a thunderous response from audiences. Released over 5,000 screens, Andhadhun became the third highest-grossing Indian film in China, and raked in over Rs. 300 crore, which was way more than its lifetime collection in India (Rs. 95.63 crore).
"Delighted to contribute in this huge cinematic moment for India"
Delighted by the massive response, Ayushmann had stated, "It feels great to be appreciated for your hard work not just in India but also in China. Andhadhun is making India proud and I'm delighted to contribute in this huge cinematic moment for India."
