In recent years, Indian films have poured into the Chinese market in batches, and because of their keenness to expose social reality problems, the release of each film will not only achieve super high box office, but also bring super high topics. WrestleMania! "Daddy" involves sports and gender issues, "Mysterious Superstar" deals with domestic violence and Indian women's issues, "Little Lori's Monkey God Uncle" deals with ethnic contradictions and religious issues, "Starting Line" deals with children's education, "Toilet Hero" and "Pad Man" involve women's rights and interests. Among them, there is also no lack of warm and humorous comedic elements, which has aroused heated discussion in China.
Recently, "Toilet Hero" starring Akshe Kumar, which exceeded 60 million in the 4 days of release, can it create a miracle again? After comprehensive judgment, since the social problems reflected in the film are not very compatible with the Chinese market, it is not difficult to explain that the box office is not high.
However, the reason for removing the movie. The film stars Akshe Kumar, who is definitely a "mysterious superstar" compared to the "Three Khans of India" (Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Amir Khan). As a well-known actor in India, he is known as 'Jackie Chan of India'. He has starred in hundreds of films, is known as the actor who "ruled the Indian film industry for 25 years", and is known as the "Three Khans and One Horse" along with the "Three Khans of India". As a representative of Bollywood's "model worker", his film works not only broke his personal box office records several times, but also rose in word of mouth. According to the 2017 Forbes ranking, Akshe Kumar ranked in the top ten among the world's highest-paid actors, and the appeal of the Indian domestic box office far exceeded that of Amir Khan, who is well known to Chinese audiences.
Toilet Hero: Adapted from a true story, it explores the phenomenon that rural families in India generally do not have toilets, and women must go to the toilet in the wild. The heroine served as a teacher, and after marrying the male protagonist, she found that there was no toilet at home, and the male protagonist "divorced", and there was a revolution.
The film was personally tweeted by Bill Gates for it,
Pad Man: "There is Batman and Spider-Man in the United States; Pancake Man in China; there is Pad Man in India." The film is based on the Indian archetype arunachalam muruganantham, who invented the low-cost sanitary napkin production machine, which revolutionized the concept of menstrual hygiene in rural India. "Powerful people and strong people will not make the country stronger, and the country will be strong when women are strong, mothers are strong, and sisters are strong."
His wives, Tingko Kanna (actor) and Amir Khan, have supported Pad man.
The original intention of the two films, "Toilet Hero" and "Pad Man", was to strongly attack social problems such as the low social status of Indian women and the serious discrimination of women. Akshaku Kumar speaks out for Indian women through his films and is affectionately known as India's "Friends of Women".
