Detailed Chart: How Much Money Producer Gets From ₹2K Ticket?

These days, there have been a lot of complaints about the massive hikes in ticket prices, which is steadily pushing the family audience away from theatre. Explaining on this matter, happening producer, SKN has provided a detailed chart that reveals the share of the revenue that is generated from ticket sales.

This detailed financial breakdown shows how the ₹2178.00 spent by a family of four is distributed among the different stakeholders, proving the disproportionate share captured by the exhibition and ticketing platforms compared to the producer.

Incidentally, it is the Multiplex chain that walks away with the majority of the revenues. Out of the ₹2000 revenue that is generated from a family of getting tickets, around 1500 goes to the multiplex itself.

Multiplex Dominance: The Multiplex captures 70.95% of the total money spent by the family, primarily fueled by the ₹1,200 F&B sale and its share of the ticket and convenience fees.

Producer's Share: The Producer, who invested the capital and bears the creative risk for the entire film, receives only 17.08% of the family's total expenditure. The producer gets just ₹372 from the overall revenue generated.

BMS Share: The Online Ticketing Platform (BMS) alone captures 3.61% of the total spend through the convenience fee, a charge that the producer has no stake in and actively discourages audience footfalls. They get ₹78 from this revenue transaction.

It is interesting to note that the Multiplex chains, including PVR Inox are the ones which are working away with the major majority of the revenue generated through ticket sales.
