“Secret Superstar,” the latest film vehicle for Indian superstar Aamir Khan, looks set top open on top of the Chinese box office. It is enjoying the momentum¹ created by Khan’s previous film “Dangal,” which enjoyed an unprecedented² $193 million of business in China. “Superstar” had clocked up $3.5 million (RMB23.3 million) by 3pm on last Friday, its opening day.
