Naga Vamsi on ticket prices: Cinema is the cheapest form of entertainment
Published on Oct 13, 2024 7:02 pm IST

Naga Vamsi, one of the youngest producers and distributors in the Telugu film industry, is making waves with his numerous projects. His upcoming film, Lucky Baskhar starring Dulquer Salmaan, is one of the most anticipated releases.

In a recent interview, the producer expressed his views on current cinema ticket prices, describing them as reasonable. He raised an interesting point: “With a ticket costing Rs. 250, a family of four can watch a movie for three hours, and even get popcorn for Rs. 500. For Rs. 1500, which other form of entertainment offers such value? Do shopping malls or other entertainment avenues offer such an affordable experience? Cinema is the cheapest form of entertainment. So how can it be considered exploitation?” he asked.

Naga Vamsi’s comments sparked a debate among netizens. While some agreed with him, suggesting that cinema provides great value for money, others pointed out that not all films offer entertainment that justifies the ticket price, especially when they are hiked. The debate continues to unfold, and it remains to be seen where the discussions will lead.
