So guys,

I ended up watching both Raees and Kaabil recently and only paid roughly about 46 rupees (or about 65 cents) for the tickets, that too at a multiplex like INOX. (Thanks to BookMyShow and Freecharge offers).

So I was wondering if these discounts affect the box office collections or boost them? Yes, they are definitely getting the footfalls but wouldn't they also affect the distributor share and things like that?

Also want to know what is the general trend like.. how much do you guys generally pay for tickets?

Raees was 9 pounds for the ticket. 8 pounds for nacho meal with drink. So I spent 17 pounds in total (2100 rupees approx)

Kaabil I didn't get nachos, just the ticket. 9 pounds. (1100 rupees approx)

I then saw Raees again on Saturday spending 9 pounds. (1100 rupees approx)

High five!

Ponymo, how did you pay 65 rupees? Did you win the discounts lottery or what?

There is a BMS discount offer where you get Rs. 150 off on booking two tickets via BMS and Rs. 150 additional discount by paying via Freecharge. Total Rs. 300 off 😆

$11 dollars plus online "convenience" fee LOL in the US for matinee showing of Kaabil at a mainstream theater (it would be cheaper in the Indian theaters but they are much less nice so I'd rather pay). Same price for Raees. About double the cost of American matinees so lots of people buy tickets for cheaper American movies and sneak into the Hindi/other Indian films - sad because then the movie gets no revenue. 👎🏼
