As Pathaan completes 50 days, Roopbani Cinema in Purnea, Bihar sells tickets of the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer for just Rs. 50: “The last film to run for 50 days in our theater was Krrish, which had released 17 years ago”

Vishek Chauhan, the owner of Roopbani Cinema in Purnea, Bihar, was so overwhelmed with the response to pathans that he celebrated its 50-day completion in his own style. On Thursday, March 16, he sold tickets for the 12:30 PM show of pathans for just Rs. 50. Surprisingly, the response for an afternoon show on a working day for a film, which has already been watched by regular moviegoers, was very encouraging.

For Vishek Chauhan, pathans celebrating 50 days was even more special as the last film to achieve this feat in its theater was Krish, starring Hrithik Roshan. It was released way back in 2006.

Speaking exclusively to Bollywood HungamaVishek Chauhan said, “I am very happy with the response to pathans, After a gap of 17 years, a film has successfully completed 50 days in our cinema hall. The last film to run for 50 days was Krish, On the special occasion, we sold tickets for Rs. 50. We were surprised with the turnout as the occupancy was around 60-70%. This is a terrific response for a film which is on its 50th day. I am very thankful to YRF, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Sidharth Anand, Salman Khan and the others in the cast and crew. We’d also like to thank the audience. During COVID-19, the theatrical medium was quite affected. But pathans Proves that cinema halls are going nowhere. As long as the right film comes along, the audiences will always be there to watch the film.”

When asked if pathans was the biggest grosser in Roopbani Cinema post-pandemic, he replied, “For our cinema hall, this is one of the biggest films of all time, forget pre or post-pandemic. The domestic lifetime numbers say it all. It has overtaken Baahubali 2 (2017). Even in our theatre, the collections have gone beyond Baahubali 2 and many other films.
