Multiplexes contributes only 25-30% of total theatres in chennai...I feel that BW reports based on all chennai theatres...

Meanwhile on monday itself Sify guy reported that pongal collections r coming down-nu...so athoda reflections-a kooda irukkalam...

BK,

Kamala theatre is not a multiplex I guess and the shows were full on the holidays. I witnessed this both for Nanban and Vettai on the republic day as I coulnt get the tickets for both films. Collection dropping is common for any film over the weeks but not from 95 to 50 in a span of 7 days.

This is the funniest report I've seen in a while. Contrary to the previous Vijay movies, I've been following the theatre occupancy for Nanban across theatres, thanks to Internet. It has been rock steady. A film with 95% in the previous week falls to 50% in 1 week and the collection is a mere 1.27 C in spite of having a houseful Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Looks terrifying than a Roland Emmerich disaster.

Just for argument.. during 7A you said.. "Internet booking status ellam namba koodadhu.. Theater pona seat kidaichadhu aana online status shows Houseful'nu .. Now you are relying on Internet to check the booking status..

Unmaiyoe poiyoe I have no comments on behindwoods report.. also no issues with Nanban being a blockbuster(personally I liked it).

For 7A when the booking starts, first 5 days showed house full for most of the theatres within some hours. After two days the status were changed to available.Some hubbers also mentioned that they were able to get tickets in theatre but the status was housefull in online.

Vithagan,

Not only for 7A, even for Endhiran and DTM, those theatres showed full houses in the online booking status but tickets were available in the counter. I have never even relied on those theatres while checking the status. And to name the theatres, they are Fame and PVR. I have even discussed abt this with a fellow hubber then.

[ajaybaskar]

And if u r a Chennaiite, u can try this. If u don't get tickets For a movie, go to the above said theatres and check it in the counter. 9 out of 10 times, I will get it.

I didn't know you were mentioning specific theaters.. so just brought up that point.

[ajaybaskar]

I got the point.

After all I check the status to find if my favourite star's film is turning out to be a hit and not with the intention of countering other Hubbers in the BO thread. Hope all fans do the same when their star's film releases. This 95 to 50 percent drop is what amused me all of a sudden.
