The comedy "Finding Mr. Right" starring actress Tang Wei has raked in more than 400 million yuan (64.5 million U.S. dollars) since it debuted in Chinese mainland theaters on March 21.
The romantic comedy had a single-day take of 11 million yuan the day it debuted, director Xue Xiaolu said, adding that the film was the highest-grossing Chinese film screened in March.
The film tells the story of a Chinese woman who falls in love with a divorced doctor she meets in the U.S., where she has traveled to give birth in order to secure U.S. citizenship for her child.
Tang is best known for her role in Ang Lee's 2007 spy thriller "Lust, Caution."
