Sridevi's Mom Is Ninth - Top Openings In China

Saturday 11 May 2019 11.00 IST Box Office India Trade Network

Mom had good opening day collections in China with business of $1.40 million on day one. This is the 9th highest opening day ever in China for an Indian film. It beat the opening day figures of Andhadhun which released in China a few weeks back and proved to be a blockbuster in China.

The audience in China is more female than male for Indian films which always gives these female protagonist films a chance in China but it remains to be seen where this film goes in China. A Hichki which opened to half the collections of Mom eventually did over $20 million and that would also be a good result for Mom.

Andhadhun has gone to $47 million plus with just a $1 million start while Bahubali - The Conclusion went to just $12 million from a $2.5 million start so these openings hardly define the business and the next few days will tell which way Mom will go in the Chinese market. There are 11 Indian films to top the $1 million mark on day one in China and they are as follows.
