Baahubali 2, which has been making a mockery of the highest grossing Kannada films in Karnataka by raking in more than two times the numbers of regional films, has been forced to slow down its rampage at box office.
The Karnataka government has now capped the ticket prices at all theatres in the state at Rs 200. Moreover, it has been made mandatory for multiplexes to screen Kannada and regional films during prime time (between 1.30 pm to 7.30 pm). The ‘Gold Class Screen’, ‘Gold Class Seats’, IMAX and 4DX screens have been exempted from this ceiling.
The move by the state govt. came barely a day after Chief Minister Siddaramaiah along with his family watched ‘Baahubali 2’ at a multiplex. The ceiling on ticket prices comes into immediate effect, which will in turn hamper the collections of Baahubali 2.
Interim, Baahubali 2 has already emerged as the country’s industry hit film by raking around Rs 780 crore worldwide gross in just 6 days.
