Yash Raj Films acquires distribution rights of Salman Khan’s ‘Tubelight’ in overseas market

Salman Khan’s upcoming film ‘Tubelight’ is making the right kind of noise amidst the audience. One because it is Salman Khan and the film has to be larger-than-life and two, because it’s Kabir Khan and Salman Khan’s third venture together. Plus, like every year Salman gives a perfect Eidi to his fans in the form of his film, this year we are going to have ‘Tubelight’ making it to the theatres on Eid. So in all, a blockbuster in the making.

Adding on to this, we have now learnt that Salman has joined hands with Yash Raj Films for the distribution of this film in overseas market. YRF has taken charge of overseas distribution of this film and this is their first collaboration with Salman’s production house.

Vice President, International Operations of Yash Raj Films, Avtar Panesar, confirmed the news and said, “Firstly it’s our privilege to collaborate with SKF, Salman Khan is arguably the biggest Box Office draw today and growing with each film. With him and Kabir Khan reuniting for the 3rd time, it makes ‘Tubelight’ a very special and hugely anticipated film with a great deal of excitement both within the business and the audiences alike. We at YRF pride ourselves on delivering only the best in filmed entertainment and are thrilled to bring ‘Tubelight’ to the fans in the international markets this Eid.”

Amar Butala, Chief Operating Officer of Salman Khan Films, also expressed happiness over this collaboration and stated, “We are delighted to partner with YRF who bring with them years of experience in distribution in both traditional and emerging markets overseas. Our last production ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ is Salman’s biggest overseas grosser to date and we hope to set new benchmarks with Tubelight and to reach out to newer audiences and markets.”  (Also Read: Clash of the Titans!
