The world loved Aamir Khan as the smooth criminal on wheels (throwback: Dhoom 3) and loves him even more as the sceptical alien in PK.
Huge audiences in Pakistan have flocked to cinemas to watch the actor who has lived up to his reputation and success as an artiste who makes the viewer think.
After crossing INR300 crore in India, Rajkumar Hirani’s PK has triumphed in Pakistan, with rave reviews and repeat visits.
PK is expected to cross Rs15 crore in Pakistan, Manager Marketing from Distributor Club (PVT) Ltd, Hassaan Rizvi said, “The primary reasons for PK’s success are Rajkumar Hirani and Aamir Khan.”
“Perhaps another reason might be that the film has presented Pakistan in a positive light. Also, many people are coming because of word-of-mouth—for instance if one person watches the film, he is returning with two to three more people to view it again,” he added.
Cinema goers in Karachi are well-impressed with Aamir Khan’s loveable depiction of the unaware, inquisitive alien.
According to the Indian Express, PK may well become the first Indian film to cross INR600 crore worldwide.
