Indian theatres will no doubt focus on local fare, such as the Brahmāstra
National Cinema Day is here in India, offering a big price drop. On Friday, September 16, movie tickets across the country will cost just Rs. 75, in celebration of the successful reopening of theatres in the country. The one-day-only discount will be available at more than 4,000 participating theatres, encouraging film enthusiasts to spend a day at the movies. The offer is applicable to major theatres, including PVR, INOX, Cinépolis, and more — though the official websites have not been updated.
The Multiplex Association of India (MAI) has announced the offer as a “thank you” to moviegoers who kept the theatre business afloat. National Cinema Day is a completely new event, and is already making headlines in the US, with theatres such as AMC and Cinemark slashing ticket prices down to $3 (about Rs. 240) this weekend. Even theatres in the UK are following suit, with the celebration scheduled for Saturday, September 3, at £3 (about Rs. 277).
