The reel superhero Krrish is becoming a hit of a different kind.

While the movie was one of the year's biggest blockbusters, Rakhis with cut-outs of the Bollywood superhero are also selling like hot cakes.

In fact, Rakhis with film motifs are a big hit with kids. Those with motifs like Spiderman, Superman and Harry Potter have flooded the markets this year and are being snapped up in a hurry.

These cost anything between Rs 20 to Rs 40.
