After turning out to be one of the biggest surprise hits at the domestic market, Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor starrer 102 Not Out is now all set release in China on November. After the humongous success of Dangal, the filmmakers have realized the potential of Chinese market and we are seeing many Bollywood releases there. In this year, we saw films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Secret Superstar, Hindi Medium, Baahubali 2, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, Sultan and Hichki releasing in the Chinese market.
Since 102 Not Out is strong on content, we expect the film to attract the audience with positive word of mouth and become huge success among the Chinese audience. In 2019, films like Thalapathy Vijay's Mersal and Aamir Khan's Thugs of Hindostan will release in China, so we can expect many ventures to set new benchmarks at the box office.
102 Not Out portrays the relationship between a 102-year-old father, essayed by Big B, and his 75-year-old son, played by Rishi, on the silver screen. Produced by Sony Pictures Entertainment Films India, Treetop Entertainment and Shukla's Benchmark Pictures, it is directed by Umesh Shukla, who previously helmed OMG! Oh My God. The film is about a centenarian who wants to break the world record of being the oldest man alive, which is held by a 118-year-old Chinese man. He plans to do it by putting his son in an old age home.
