For those who don’t know, Aamir enjoys a huge fan base in China. It’s not that every Indian biggie rakes in huge moolah there as films like Baahubali have tanked. Aamir has been lucky enough to receive love for almost all of his releases in the past. However, his 2016’s all-time blockbuster is altogether in a different league!

In China, it was released several months later i.e. in May 2017. It took a good enough start and went on to grow with each passing day. On day 1, the film had earned around 16 crores which went up to as high as 113 crores on the 16th day. Isn’t it unbelievable?
