“I am super thrilled that ‘Andhadhun’ is releasing in China. Ten years back, on a visit to China, I walked into a Beijing Cafe and was zapped to see Nasir Husain’s ‘Caravan’ playing on a big screen. Dubbed in Chinese except for the songs. I was told the film was the favorite Indian film of that generation. I am curious how the Chinese audience responds to our musical thriller,” Raghavan said in a statement.
