Chennai Express producers – UTV Motion Pictures and Red Chillies claim the film is one of the largest releases in the domestic as well as overseas markets. It is releasing in more theaters than any other Bollywood movie in the history of Indian cinemas overseas.

Shahrukh Khan’s Chennai Express releases in around 4200 screens in India and abroad. The film will be released in 50+ nations and in 700+ screens which makes it the widest release for an Indian film.

Chennai Express will be screened in new worldwide markets like Morocco, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Peru and Israel and that too on the same day and date.
Moreover, Chennai Express releases on the festive weekend of Eid, which is one of the biggest festivals in many Muslim countries like Gulf, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore.

Chennai Express focusses on Eid – school mid-term holidays all over the world and in India Eid weekend is followed by Independence Day weekend. No doubt, Chennai Express can break many past box office records with its first 10 days of release owning two long weekend holidays.

Chennai Express will be dubbed in ten distinct languages – English, French, Spanish, Arabic, German, Hebrew, Dutch, Turkish and Malay. Furthermore, the film will be subtitled in other languages as well. Also, the promotional materials have been localized.
Reports said that multiplexes across the country would be hiking the ticket rates for the film. With this ticket price hike, starting day figures are sure to jump thus would boost the overall collections.

Moreover, Chennai Express is a solo Bollywood release. Once Upon A Time in Mumbai releases for Independence Day, so, for Eid weekend the viewers are left with no choice, except Chennai Express.
Above all, the combo of Shakrukh Khan, Rohit Shetty and Deepika Padukone has created a lot of expectations among audience.
