I can never understand why so much hype for eid release? Not only eid, but also diwali and christmas.

who watches movies on festival days? i never do on diwali. my friends and family dont. Most people in my circle dont. similarly all muslim people i know, they do celebration at home, with friends and relatives. no one told me they watch movies on eid. they cook good food and exchange gifts i think.

honestly festival is special day and it seems stupid to do something which u anyways do whole year. anyday u can watch movies on cable tv.


who are these people who go out and sit quietly in a dark room for 3 hours, without talking to anyone when the whole world is eating sweets, burning firecrackers and doing shopping.

Depends on family. My family watches movies on Eid..and am sure there are more families like that or these stars won't release a film on Eid.

My family usually watches it a day after Eid, with Eid usually being two days here in the UK cinemas are always packed both days.

A ticket to a theater is a poor mans vacation.

^ yes exactly. Eid is celebrated for like 4 days. Some families go see a movie on one of those four days. The other days they spend with family, or friends or they go to a party.
Am going to see Kick on Eid. The other days am spending with family and friends.

I usually catch movies day after eid, because Eid day is prayers in the morning and family/friends time in the evening. But I have seen a lot of people who prefer spending Eid day at theaters.

Unknowingly our choice regulate by marketing media pr etc. As these r special festival and people r in celebration mood so entertainment industry exploit much. Its a recent phenomenon like started with ver zara movie so also others.
