Fox STAR Studios has said that it hopes My Name Is Khan can recreate the success of Slumdog Millionaire, which it distributed earlier this year.
Chief executive Vijay Singh claimed that the Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol starrer has the potential to attract a similarly global audience.
He told a news conference: "This is the kind of story that will appeal across the world and also to Islamic countries because of the subject of the film."
Fox International Productions president Sanford Panitch added: "This is just the beginning of a relationship for this kind of collaboration.
"This is the first mainstream Bollywood film that we will be distributing worldwide. This is an ongoing commitment to Bollywood from our side."
My Name Is Khan is scheduled for release in February next year.

It's all good until India starts feeling that they have to shove bloody Angelina Jolie, or Jennifer Aniston into its films to prove they can be as European as Hollywood. Be India...and you win. Try to be what you call "international" meaning European and you lose both identity and appeal for much of the world. Tread softly...value yourSELVES and it's all cool.
