After Aamir Khan ’s ‘ Dangal ’, it’s time for Salman Khan to rock the Chinese audience with his film, ‘ Bajrangi Bhaijaan ’. In China, ‘ Dangal ’ released in 9000 screens and did a business of approximately $ 200 million and now, Salman’s ‘ Bajrangi Bhaijaan ’ has got more than 8000 screens in Mainland China and is set to hit the screens on March 2nd. As changing the movie titles for Chinese audience is a usual thing, the Chinese Censor Board also renamed the title of BB and it will release with the new title, ‘Little Lolita Monkey God Uncle’. As in the film, Harshali’s name was Munni, they decided to change it with ‘Little Lolita’ and as we know Salman played the worshiper of the Lord Hanuman; they changed it to ‘Monkey God’.
Bajrangi Bhaijaan originally released in India in June 2015. It tells the story of a humble, religiously motivated man played by Salman Khan who helps a mute, 6-year-old Pakistani girl ( Harshali Malhotra ) to find her way home after she is accidentally separated from her family. The Chinese version of the picture will have a running time of 140 minutes, 16 minutes less than the Indian release.
If Bajrangi Bhaijaan can earn, say, $25 million or more in China, it could open the doors for more films from India to enter the Chinese market. That would likely require some goodwill from Aamir Khan 's huge fan-base, for Salman Khan to ride on his very wide coattails.
