Fan and Sultan to be screened at 21st Busan International Film Festival

Two YRF films – Shah Rukh Khan’s FAN and Salman Khan’s Sultan – will be screened at Asia’s premier film festival, often called the Cannes of Asia – the Busan International Film Festival.

The festival will also serve to kick start the campaign for the theatrical release for both films in South Korea as YRF continues with their commitment of taking the best of Indian cinema to International non-traditional markets.

Sultan and FAN

Sultan and FAN

Director Maneesh Sharma’s Fan will screen in the A Window on Asian Cinema section, one that is vied for by many Asian filmmakers. An archetypal Indian film story narrated and presented in a sleek, internationally appealing format, this screening highlights recognition for the film’s unique content. At Asia’s largest film festival, where 300 films will be screened from 29 countries this year, Fan has a special marquee screening position.

Director Ali Abbas Zafar’s record-breaking blockbuster, Sultan, will be screened at the popular Open Cinema section at Busan. A line up of Asian films that draws maximum audiences, Sultan, with its winsome story, captures mainstream Indian cinema’s best qualities. With memorable performances from Salman Khan, Anushka Sharma and its ensemble cast, cinema experts at the festival will keenly watch this film.

FAN, released in theatres in April this year, collected Rs 84.5 crore at the domestic box office and fell just short of the 200 crore mark (186 crore gross) worldwide. Sultan was released during the Eid weekend. The film collected Rs 302 crore in India and went on to amassed more than 580 crore (gross) worldwide.

  • @hrithik, loggerheads like #Nanga Naach thinks only Ka….Ka….Kiran kinda of overacting or doing bhikari pose in every next movie is called Acting….LOL, Our Bhai may not be a great Actor like Aamir/Ajay/Akshay still has Blockbusters in every genre whether it’s recent Sports genre,Family Drama,Comedy,Action….I don’t think any ‘Non-Actor’ is that much successful ? ! I mean how can a ‘Non-Actor’ fits in every kind of roles ? Nanga Naach ?? This loongi fanatics are well aware of the fact that their tiny STARDOMless star has no AUKAAT infront of Megastar Bhai when it comes to Box Office Records so they slightly changed the topic from Box Office Records to haklu’s Useless ‘Overseas’ success, Bikau FilmFake awards which he has purchased 7-8 times for his same kind of Overacting or boasting about his Wealth which is not even a topic to discuss, They feel proud of their Monkey idol bcoz their idol is 2nd richest flopstar but they never talk about the Tax Chori, Paani Chori or illegal constructions done by the 2nd richest flopstar.

  • @The breast-LOL, People like you are proof enough that why lallu’s fanbase is called rickshawala gawar fanbase. Just using nasty language won’t make your idol a big star, forget megastar.Won’t make your idol an actor, forget good actor. SRK ruled bollywood for 2 back to back decades, proof:BOI. If your 2010 born star is megastar than SRK is his baap in all respect. lallu can’t attract audience in the overseas so it has become useless? So anything lallu can’t do becomes useless? lallu can’t win a single prestigious award, so awards have become paid? What is your lallu then? Bhikhaari? Yeah SRK can never compete with lallu in terms of box office records, since he cannot deliver as many flops and disasters as lallu delivered. SRK can’t deliver as many crap films as lallu has done. If the biggest moviestar in the world is called stardomless than lallu is below tusshar kapoor in terms of stardom since SRK never had to suffer decades long failure. Now lallu has tasted some new experience of success and his gawar fans are pretending as if he was always a star!! Local star lallu’s fans are as uneducated as he himself is, that’s why he won’t ever get any international recognition. Be happy with your rickshawala fanbase!!

  • @Naya Namuna :

    You have proved it once again that you are the Biggest fool haklutard living on planet earth, never seen such a blind and illiterate loongi fanatic in ma whole life, Why can’t you leave this planet and settle on pluto ?

    So according to Box Office Pluto(India), the most hit/superhit/bb/atbb/hgoty/hgotd/100cr/200cr/300cr/most 100cr distributor share/Most 150cr distributor share/Most 25cr+/30cr+/35cr+ figures on single day/Most 2cr and 3cr + footfall/Most rained ATHG(HAHK) among Khans giving Megastar is ranked below the one who is struggling to give a single HGOTY since past 9 yrs (still struggling), the one who was struggled to beat #HAHK record for 14 long-long year’s inspite of ruling for 2 decades According To Box Office ‘Pluto’ ?? the one who struggled for 22 long-long year’s to give his life’s 1st ATHG that too after side rolling Deepika, The one who has given a content rich 80cr collected flop cum Disaster on Partial holiday not even Non-holiday when his BAAP Salman bhai delivered two 100cr grossers (including 1 blockbuster) on Pure Non-holiday way before him. If your Gobar oops Global star was such a big star for 2 decades According to Box Office Pluto then why he is lagging behind a Bhai in above mentioned Benchmarks ? If he was really a 2 decade ruler then he should have top the above mentioned records ? I think there was a Criteria going on Box Office Pluto that the least (Above mentioned) record giving star was ranked upper than the most record giving Megastar….LOL

    If you go to any box office related site then you will noticed Bhai is Above bhikari haklu in every department which i had mentioned above, If have guts then proved me wrong with any source ? And listen you Firangi haklutard, apply some brain (If you have little bit) before blabbering non-sense infront of Me and stay in u’r puny aukaat, If you found anywhere bashing Bhai with your garbage facts the trust me I will make you cry for sure !

    And lastly for you loggerhead, Look at this :

    */Q. The rate at which salman is going he could have 12 or more blockbusters this decade only. are there any words to describe this unbeatable achievement?
    A. If he can continue at this level for the next 4-5 years or more, he could be the biggest Bollywood superstar of all time. There is also a chance that he could take it to the next level as films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan have really set box office benchmarks, both when it comes to opening, weekend and lifetime collections. One actor generating 1000 crore of business within a span of 12 months (Bajrangi Bhaijaan to Sultan – just domestic business) is simply phenomenal./*

    I never find indicine praising haklu by calling him ‘He will be Biggest Superstar Of All Time’ forget about #All Time (I hope you know meaning of this word ?) but Indicine never-ever used ‘Megastar’ word for haklu which they used most of the times for Bhai. Feel the difference you STATDOMless/AUKATless Flop over actors Nanga fan.

  • @ THe breast-I can’t stoop as low as you do with so horrible English (rickshawala English *cough* *cough*) but let me have a try.
    *The most hit/superhit/bb/atbb/hgoty that lallu has are all in India. In worldwide statistics he is way behind. GO to BOI to see proof.

    */100cr/200cr/300cr/most 100cr distributor share/Most 150cr distributor share/Most 25cr+/30cr+/35cr+ figures on single day

    Abey lallutard, in the 90’s and 2000’s were anything called 100 cr, 200 cr, 300 cr? In that respect Amitabh Bachchan is also no star since he gave no 100 cr, 200cr and 300 cr.

    *Most rained ATHG(HAHK) among Khans: Why do you take the credit of HAHK from Madhuri where she had higher salary and bigger screen presence than flopking lallu and say it’s SRK who sideplayed Deepika(who stood still during the entire climax) in CE? Did deepika have more screen time than SRK or was she paid higher salary?

    Q. In what time period was SRK considered absolute number 1? Why is he not being considered number 1 today? What can he do to come back to this position?

    A. SRK was No 1 for most part of his career. How can he be considered No 1 today when Salman and Aamir are way ahead, atleast as far as the domestic box office totals are concerned. He needs to do good films to get back to the top. Signing films with big directors does not ensure success, these days only films that have a good story to tell are working.

    Indicine was asked Who is the most successful actor of all time, Salman Khan or Amitabh Bachchan?

    Ans. Shahrukh Khan. ( I haven’t bookmarked that link. Try find yourself. It’s snapshot is also available in twitter)

    Need anything more? Abey Lallutard, Indicine called lallu megastar? So what? CNN, BBC, THe Lost Angeles TImes, The Guardian, Times Magazine, Forbes etc called SRK the biggest moviestar in the world!!! Now cry!!

    Also learn some English. Seems like you are too excited while commenting. Someone rightly called you the horny beast!!

    @Indicine-Sorry for bothering you with long comments, but please post it.
