A huge section of the industry was not too confident of the film's business in China due to the rural concern it addresses in the film.
However, these recent figures have shown a different story.
TEPK, a satirical comedy in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's campaign to improve sanitation conditions in India, had hit the domestic box office in August 2017.
It became one of the top grossers of 2017 by doing a business of Rs. 134.22 crore in India alone. (ANI)
