The decision to disallow Book My Show and others for Pawan Kalyan’s Bheemla Nayak in Telangana has shocked many movie lovers. Actually, this is a mark of protest by the cine industry showcasing their dissatisfaction over certain terms of the online portals such as Book My Show, PayTM and others.
These platforms levy a convenience charge of 11% on the ticket rates. With the cine industry opening up just now with a string of biggies set to release, this 11% charge is burning a hole in the pockets of filmmakers. Already the AP ticket pricing issue has caused major losses to many films. While it will be resolved at the earliest, the filmmakers also want to bring an end to the issue of online convenience charges.
For Bheemla Naayak, there will be no online bookings. The tickets will be sold at counters only like in the earlier days. The online booking for this Pawan Kalyan starrer opened just today.
