New Delhi: On Thursday, the Multiplex Association of India (MAI) announced that on October 13, 2023, cinemas throughout India would commemorate National Cinema Day 2023 by offering discounted movie tickets for as little as 99 (excluding recliner and premium formats).

Instead of celebrating National Cinema Day on its traditional date of September 16, this year’s celebration will take place on October 13. On National Cinema Day, we celebrate the moviegoers who make the film industry what it is today.

The purpose of this holiday was to welcome back moviegoers from across the nation following COVID-19.

National Cinema Day 2023

On October 13, 2023, Indians will celebrate National Cinema Day. In honour of the year’s strong box office performance, movie tickets throughout India will be sold for only Rs 99 on that day.

It’s also an effort to get people into movie theatres. More than 4,000 theatres in India have committed to taking part, according to data from the Multiplex Association of India.

National Cinema Day 2023 would include participation from major multiplexes like PVR, INOX, Cinepolis, and Movie Time. Remember that in honour of National Cinema Day, on Friday, October 13, movie tickets will only cost Rs 99.

The reason for this is a tradition started by multiplexes last year when the cinema industry was struggling with post-pandemic theatre closures and underperforming films. It may have begun as a marketing ploy to get through a slow period, but it now offers significant discounts to moviegoers.

Tickets to several Indian movies have been significantly discounted since last year when the country’s major cinema operators joined together to commemorate National Cinema Day.

How to Book the Ticket with Offer?

Tickets for National Cinema Day 2023 can be purchased in advance online through services like BookMyShow and PayTM, as well as directly through the websites of participating theatres.

Simply choose the films you like to see and the day Friday, and reserve the ticket. There are still no Friday ticket booking options for several of the overseas films. Popular films from India, however, can be purchased at a discount. Multiplexes may add their fees and taxes to the ticket costs.
