Kushi to enter Malaysia

Pawan Kalyan's Kushi would be screened shortly in Malaysia. Talking to idlebrain.com, AM Ratnam told that the response in London was impressive. There are requests from Malaysian Telugu community to screen Kushi. It would be either screened in the theater or the cable channel. He is also having plans like translating Kushi in Japanese and releasing the film in Japan at a later point of time. In the past, Rajnikant's Muthu did a terrific business in Japan. He feels that it might be a good try to release Kushi in Japanese language as it sports nice fights along with neat story. It may be noted that an AR Rehman's Tamil film can be sold up to 6 crores for overseas rights as the Telugu film could not cross the barrier of 10 lakhs (that's too because of the market in USA). Releasing the Telugu films globally could increase the overseas market. It is learnt that Aamir Khan sold the overseas rights of Lagaan for 10 crores.
