"Salman Talkies" Yes, you heard right
The actor Salman Khan is serious
about opening his own chain of theatres, says just a matter of logistics to
fall in place
A couple of years ago, He spoke's about his project, Salman Talkies, a chain of theatres where tickets
would be tax-free, at subsidized rates and free for children from
underprivileged backgrounds.
Salman says, “I had a lot of plans
for the theatre chain but it’s taking me longer because I need to be very
careful. There are a lot of logistical details involved so that the project
doesn’t shut down. But let me clarify, the theatres will not be in Bandra or
Juhu, but on the outskirts of Mumbai.”
Salman surely seems to be very
excited as the 52-year-old admits that he would love to inaugurate each theatre
himself. His multiplexes are expected to
flag off in Maharashtra. The supposed idea behind this was the problem of movie
tickets in tier-one cities costing around Rs 400-500. He believes that increasing
footfalls in small regions is the only way to boost box-office collections.
