Zhang Yimou

China's best-known film director Zhang Yimou has paid 7.5 million yuan ($1.2 million) for violating the one-child policy, officials said on Friday, closing a case that had attracted widespread attention.

Renowned Chinese film director Zhang Yimou has been slapped with a whopping USD 1.23 million fine for violating the country's controversial one-child policy by having three children.

China's top film director Zhang Yimou has said he violated the country's one-child policy because of the traditional belief that having multiple children would lead to greater prosperity, state media said.

One of China's top movie directors has admitted having three children with his current wife, according to a studio media posting, apologising after months of speculation he broke the country's controversial family planning laws.

State media say authorities are investigating reports that one of Chinese cinema's top names has fathered seven children in violation of the one-child policy.

Renowned Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou feels Indian cinema has broken the stereotype of dancing and singing by venturing into other genres as well.

Zhang Yimou, one of China's top filmmakers, is a fan of Indian films, especially 3 Idiots, and even wants to collaborate with Indians to overcome the dominance of Hollywood.

Acclaimed Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou, the man behind movies like Curse of The Golden Flower and House of Flying Daggers, will be awarded the Lifetime Achievement award at the upcoming 14th Mumbai Film Festival.
