Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan, who plays the role of Simon Masrani, the owner of the dinosaur park in the movie Jurassic World, feels the success of the movie has turned out to be a blessing for him.

 

“The success of Jurassic World has come out as a blessing for all of us. I am overjoyed with the response that the film has received in India and abroad. I thank everyone who has contributed to this film and made it such a large success,” Irrfan said in a statement.

 

Jurassic World has minted over $200 million at the US box office so far.

 

22 years after the events of Jurassic Park, the story unfolds in a fully functional resort on Isla Nublar that sees more than 20,000 visitors a day. The new park includes a biological preserve, a safari, a zoo, and a theme park-type setting and, of course, unprecedented close access to real, living dinosaurs.

 

The movie, which also stars Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard in lead roles, is set on Isla Nublar island, the same location as Jurassic Park and is a direct sequel to the 1993 super hit.
