PANAJI: A total of 900 prints of Raj Kumar Hirani‘s ‘3 Idiots‘ are being released in China - making the largest release of any Indian film that country.

Stating this, producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra also announced that the film is being made in Hollywood by a filmmaker there, and in Italian.

He said the Chinese release comes on the heels of the huge success of this film in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

He attributed the success of the film to the fact that human emotions were the same everywhere.

He categorically said that the film was only inspired by Chetan Bhagat‘s book and not based on it as it was vastly different.
