Aamir Khan and Zaira Wasim's Secret Superstar may not have created magic at the Indian box-office, but the film is doing wonders at China's ticket window. According to a leading Chinese online movie ticket seller and fan rating site Maoyan.com, the Advait Chandan-directed tale of a 14-year-old Muslim-Indian girl who aspires to become a singer has topped China’s box office since its local release on January 19, surpassing the collection of Hollywood blockbuster Star Wars: Last Jedi.
Bollywood producer Ronnie Screwala took to Twitter to share the big news and congratulated Aamir on the success of the movie.
