Rajesh Das, Distribution Head, PVRINOX Pictures said “PVRINOX Pictures have been an integral part of the John Wick journey in India from its humble origin when the first instalment hit the theatres in 2014. It’s been overwhelming to see how the sequels have evolved from being an unknown indie production into one of the biggest action movie franchises of all time. Seeing the strong & compelling content coupled with the huge demand amongst a wide demographic, we were extremely bullish in positioning, promoting & assertively distributing this fourth chapter across maximum number of cinema chains. The unprecedented box office success & audience euphoria is a testament to the cult following it has garnered among our movie going audiences.”
