Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Fan’ sets new record in Pakistan

Shah Rukh Khan‘s recent release ‘Fan’ has set the box office on fire. The movie that has the Badshah in a dual role of a superstar and his die hard ‘Fan’, is creating records not only in India but also in Pakistan. The ‘Dilwale’ actor’s fans across the border have given their thumbs up to the Maneesh Sharma directorial.

Sources say, “SRK’s Fan has set a new record in Pakistan. It has gone on to collect Rs 50 million in the first three days of the release. The biggest generation of revenue has come in Karachi and Lahore and the fans have given the film a thumbs up as bookings for the next one week are sold out in most cineplexes and theatres.”

Sources further add, “Shah Rukh is a bankable star and his star power was visible in the first three days of the film’s release as all shows have been sold out in Karachi. The film had generated great interest in Pakistan as in recent times the big budget and big star Indian movies also were focusing on the Pakistan market while promoting their product. The Indian film industry now realises that Pakistan is a strong market for their products that is why they now focus on promoting the film for Pakistanis as well.”

On the home front, the Yash Raj Films production ‘Fan’ has already made 52 crores approx in its first three days.
