The Karnataka government has decided to limit movie ticket prices to Rs. 200 in all theaters including multiplexes and single screens.
CM Siddaramaiah announced this during the state budget presentation. A similar attempt was made in 2017 but was stopped by the High Court.
The move is expected to benefit Kannada films as many multiplexes prefer screening higher priced non-Kannada movies.
To further support the Kannada film industry the government is launching an official online platform to promote local films.
Additionally, the government reaffirmed its plan to build a world-class Film City in Mysuru, with a budget of Rs. 500 crores.
This project will be developed in partnership with private companies, and land has already been allocated. The government aims to complete it soon.
