Get this: Zee Studios’ new film, Love in Vietnam, is making waves! It’s snagged a whopping 10,000 screens in China before it’s even released in India. Talk about a major win for Indian cinema!
Directed by Rahhat Shah Kazmi, the movie boasts a fantastic cast, including Shantanu Maheshwari, Avneet Kaur, Kha Gnan, and Bollywood legends like Farida Jalal, Raj Babbar, and Gulshan Grover.
When Can We See It?
Mark your calendars! Love in Vietnam is set to premiere in India on September 12th, 2025. And Chinese audiences can look forward to seeing it around Christmas 2025. The distribution rights in China were picked up by Shanghai YC Media and Film, which is pretty rare for a film before its domestic release.
A First for India and Vietnam
Here’s another cool fact: Love in Vietnam is the very first cinematic collaboration between India and Vietnam! Unlike other Indian films that found success in China after their India release (think Secret Superstar or 12th Fail), this one’s hitting the Chinese market first.
What’s It About?
Filmed in the beautiful landscapes of Vietnam and Punjab, the movie is inspired by the beloved novel Madonna in a Fur Coat. It’s a touching story about love, friendship, and sacrifice, all wrapped up with some amazing soulful music. Sounds like a tear-jerker in the best way!
What the Team Is Saying
Director Rahhat Shah Kazmi is understandably thrilled:
“This has been a dream project. Securing 10,000 screens in China before India release is a proud moment.”
Umesh Kumar Bansal, CBO, Zee Studios, believes the film’s message will resonate globally:
“Love knows no boundaries. This film captures that spirit and will connect with audiences worldwide.”
Jessica Zhen from Shanghai YC Media & Film is equally excited:
“It’s more than a film; it’s an emotional journey. We’re excited to present it to Chinese audiences.”
And Girish Johar, also from Zee Studios, highlights the significance of the deal:
“This deal bridges Bollywood and China, bringing Indian storytelling to millions of fans.”
The Bottom Line
Love in Vietnam, produced by a collaboration of several studios including Zee Studios, Captain Rahul Bali, and more, is shaping up to be a grand, musical, and emotional experience for audiences everywhere.
