Salman Khan made his highly anticipated return to theatres in Bangladesh with the release of his film 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan'. The actor took to his social media handle to share the film's poster and send a shout-out to his Bangladeshi fans who flocked to theatres to catch the film on the big screen.
"#KisiKaBhaiKisiKiJaan releasing today in Bangladesh. Get ready for a full dose of action, fun and entertainment," Khan tweeted.
Reacting to the superstar's post, several fans took to their social media handles to share their excitement about the film's release. Some fans even flocked to theatres with posters of the superstar and held up banners as they arrived for the screening.
This release comes four months after the film's worldwide release on Eid, 21st April. The movie earned Rs 100 crore at the Indian box office, and is expected to rake in the big bucks at the box office.
The film is only the second movie to be released in Bangladesh after Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan. According to reports, in exchange for releasing 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' in the neighbouring country, the Bangladeshi film 'Kosai', directed by Ananya Mamun, will be release in India. The government of Bangladesh specified that a maximum of 10 films can be imported in a year.
Back in 2009, the Bangladeshi government relaxed their ban on Bollywood films, to release Salman's action film 'Wanted'. The government had banned films produced in Bollywood from being released in cinemas in Bangladesh since the country's independence in 1972, in a bid to protect the local movie industry.
The superstar, who enjoys a large fan following around the world, said that his fans are his biggest strength and they keep motivating him. He said, "My fans are my biggest achievement and pride! I am what I am because of them."
Directed by Farhad Samji, 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' stars Salman Khan, Pooja Hegde, Venkatesh Daggubati, Jagapathi Babu, Raghav Jual, Siddharth Nigam, Shehnaz Gill, Palak Tiwari and Vinali Bhatnagar.
