Pankaj Tripathi Says ‘Too Costly Tickets' Keep Audiences Away From Theatres
Pankaj Tripathi went on to say that the 'business game' is beyond his understanding, as he is unfamiliar with the commercial aspects of cinema. Pankaj Tripathi is enjoying fans' positive response to his performance in the recently released romantic drama, Metro…In Dino. Directed by Anurag Basu, the film, despite good word of mouth failed to gather big numbers at the box office — a similar case with the majority of Bollywood films in recent times. But what could be the reason behind the low footfall of audiences at the theatres? Well, the actor believes it's the 'Expensive ticket pricing.' Speaking to Hindustan Times, Pankaj said, 'Ticket pricing ek mudda hai aur uski bhi ek bhumika hai (in poor collections). If a family has to go to the theatre today, it's a very costly affair. Ticket prices and the food served there are so expensive." The actor went on to say that the 'business game' is beyond his understanding, as he is unfamiliar with the commercial aspects of cinema. 'I do feel that movie tickets are too costly and that's surely a barrier." As the actor continued to express his ideas, he explained why the high ticket costs are to blame. 'On Tuesdays or National Cinema Day, when rates are reduced, cinema hall occupancy increases. So, if we offer affordable tickets, footfall will undoubtedly grow. It's challenging for a family to spend Rs 2,000 and give five hours (including travel time)," he continued. Amid the debate over high ticket prices at the theatres, the Karnataka government has reinstated a Rs 200 ticket price limit for regional films in theatres, including multiplexes. The decision followed Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's announcement in his budget speech. It is projected to benefit both film fans and the regional film industry, fostering a more vibrant and inclusive cinematic experience in the state. Coming back to Pankaj, his recent release, Metro…In Dino also featured an ensemble cast including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Konkon Sen Sharma, Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Neena Gupta and Anupam Kher. Up next, he will be seen in the comedy drama film, Parivarik ManuRanjan, along with Aditi Rao Hydari. The official release date of the film is yet to be announced. He also has Mirzapur: The Film with Ali Fazal and Divyenddu Sharma in his kitty. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
