MMUMBAI: UTV Motion Pictures is set to release Aamir Khan's Delhi Belly on 10 May in Hong Kong.
A rip-roaring film, Delhi Belly will release across eight screens in
cinemas for the first week with Cantonese subtitles.
After consecutive success of Hindi films in Hong Kong, there has been
immense demand of content that has the ability to crossover and work
with local audiences across culture and sensibilities.
The film is about Tashi, Arun and Nitin - flatmates, buddies and
partners in crime. Tashi is to get married in a month but still
doesn't know if his fiancé is the one. Arun can't make up his mind who
he wants to kill first - his girlfriend who has just dumped him or his
stupid, annoying boss whose idea of creativity is sketching a smiling
banana.
On the other hand, Nitin is about to discover that eating delicious
tandoori chicken off a street vendor is going to give him the worst
case of Delhi Belly he's ever known! Three regular blokes, living the
regular life except for one small detail - they are on the hit list
of one of the world's deadliest crime syndicates. Will they be able to
get away before the shit hits the roof and it comes crashing down?
Delhi Belly is the meanest comedy you're ever likely to see.
Said UTV Motion Pictures Senior Vice President, International
Distribution and Syndication Amrita Pandey, "It's a very proud moment
for us to have our film Delhi Belly release in Hong Kong. Hong Kong
has a large young local and expat population and Delhi Belly has done
superb business in cities like London, Singapore, Dubai, New York,
Sydney, Melbourne, we hope it resonates with audience in Hong Kong. After the phenomenal success of 3 Idiots in Hong Kong, there is huge
fan following for Aamir, and correspondingly for Delhi Belly since it
is produced by him."
Directed by Abhinay Deo and written by Akshat Verma, Delhi Belly stars Imran Khan, Kunal Roy Kapur and Vir Das.
