Superstar Salman Khan, who is awaiting the release of his next film Sultan, feels that in order to maximize footfalls for movies, ticket prices need to be reduced and number of theaters should be increased.
“If we don’t check our ticket pricing right now, our cinema is going to dip down very badly,” Salman said here.

“The numbers (of productions) are increasing, but footfalls are reducing. At Rs 80 and Rs 100 for a ticket, Marathi films are doing Rs 100 crore business and with our ticket prices of Rs 250, we are barely able to touch Rs 100 crore. It’s shameful,” Salman added.
