Dhanush’s The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir to be released in 13000 screens in China

Dhanush’s maiden English film ‘The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir’ got released worldwide in June this year. The film did fairly well and earned decent reviews from the critics. It is now set for a grand release in China this Friday (November 29). The film will be releasing in a whopping 13000 screens across the country. This is a massive release for a film that doesn’t boast the presence of a big Hollywood star.

‘The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir’ directed by Ken Scott is based on the novel, ‘The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir Who Got Trapped In An IKEA Wardrobe’, written by Romain Puertolas. The film got screened at the Norwegian International Film Festival and Barcelona Sant-Jordi International Film Festival.

Interestingly, Dhanush has another release this Friday – his long delayed Tamil film ‘Ennai Nokki Paayum Thotta’. The Gautham Menon directorial is hitting screens amidst high expectations despite the multiple postponing.
