Baahubali 2

Story highlights

Makers of the hit franchise are hoping for 'Baahubali 2' to gain the traction created by 'Dangal', 'Secret Superstar' and 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' in Chinese markets.

After breaking all box office records of an Indian film performing in domestic and worldwide markets, “Baahubali 2” is now looking for a release on May 4 in China.

The makers of Prabhas’ “Baahubali 2” are hopeful that the second film of the franchise will perform better than the first, “Baahubali: The Beginning” as the latter did not receive a good response in the Chinese market.

The makers of the hit franchise are now following the likes of other Bollywood films that have made a mark on the Chinese turf, such as Aamir Khan’s “Dangal”, “PK”, “Secret Superstar” and Salman Khan’s “Bajrangi Bhaijaan”. In case of “Dangal”, which released last year on May 5 in China, the country’s love for the film changed the overall numbers for Aamir Khan starrer hit film.
