Response For Releasing Weathering With You Movie In India

We know about the petition that was signed by the Indian anime fans to release weathering with you (tenki no ko) in India. After getting near to 40,000 signs out of 50,000 signs from Indian anime fans on change.org. The voices of fans were heard by the movie producer Genki Kawamura he responded to fans by saying that he will try release movie in Indian theaters as per requested by fans if possible.

Response From Director

If this movie is released it might be the second anime film to be released in India on behalf of fans request after the Dragon Ball Super : Broly. It was a movie which was released because it was the world most loved anime series. It was released in PVR Cinema on 29th march. To which anime fans in India responded with an open heart by watching a movie in nearest Indian theaters rather than watching a pirated copy of a movie.

Total earning of Weathering With You since its initial release is ¥1.540 billion (Usd$14.3 million). The PVR cinema might release Weathering With You but it has another option to release One Piece Stampede movie instead. So depending on your responses any one of the movies might be released. Fans India has even made the dubbed version in Hindi of teaser released movie.

NHK world japan's biggest public broadcasting service's imagination-nation has even broadcasted on the topic of India release of  Weathering With You. So, in my opinion, we must at least complete the total 50,000 sign on change.org so that even if the movie is not released if any such movie will be released in India they might even consider releasing it in India for the sake of Indian anime community. As these 50,000 signs might lead to a revolution in India due to which all anime producer in Japan might think of India having a strong fan base in terms of anime.
