Sui Dhaaga will be among the many Indian films that have released in China, including Dangal, Secret Superstar, Hichki, Baahubali: The Conclusion, Thugs of Hindostan, Andhadhun, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Hindi Medium, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, and Sultan.
According to a Bollywood Hungama report from March, the movie had released across 2,500 screens in India in September last year, and earned a whopping Rs 125.09 crore worldwide before its release in China. Recently, Sui Dhaaga became the only Indian film to be selected in the competition category at the Shanghai International Film Festival The Belt and Road Film Week.
Directed by Sharat Katariya, the film is an ode to the entrepreneurial spirit. Sui Dhaaga chronicles the story of an innocent village couple, Mauji and Mamta, who dream big to start their business together. Upon release, the film received mostly favourable reviews from critics and audiences.
Other than Sui Dhaaga, she was also seen with Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif in Zero. In an interview with Filmfare, she had said she has not taken up any new projects in 2019 as she wanted to take some time off.
Dhawan's last release was Dharma Productions' Kalank. He will be next seen in Street Dancer 3D with Shraddha Kapoor, and the remake of Coolie No 1. Dhawan will also reunite with his October director Sriram Raghavan in a film based on Arun Khetarpal, the youngest recipient of Param Vir Chakra.
