Bajrangi Bhaijaan IN CHINA

Salman Khan's first release in China - #BajrangiBhaijaan - commences its innings with HEALTHY numbers... Debuts at No 7 at China BO... Fri $ 2.24 million [ 14.61 cr]... The start can be considered IMPRESSIVE since there were 5 new films, besides #BB, debuting in Top 10 charts..

.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan has had a good opening day in China as it recorded the third best start after Secret Superstar and Dangal with $2.20 million apprx. The numbers are good but as Secret Superstar opened to $6.81 million a month or so back the numbers look a bit low.

But the numbers do not tell whole story as the screenings were less and there was more competition in the Chinese market compared to when Secret Superstar released. Dangal grossed $2.49 million on its opening day which is slightly better than Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

It is reported that Bajrangi Bhaijaan released on 8000 screens which could be the case and this is little less than the 9000 screens of Dangal but the screenings which is far more important than the screens in the Chinese market are less. Dangal had 30,364 screens on its opening day and Bajrangi Bhaijaan has had 20,000 apprx. Secret Superstar was released on 16,000 screens with 55,865 screenings.
