'Costliest' Chinese film pulled from theatres after it flops
'Asura', which is considered China's most expensive film ever, was pulled from theatres after performing poorly at the box-office in its opening weekend. The film, with an estimated budget of 750 million yuan (over $112 million), earned only $7.3 million in its first weekend. However, the film's co-producer stated the decision was not solely based on poor box-office collection.
