such a grand scale in India. We at Carnival Cinemas, have 1314 shows per day
and that is the highest number of shows given to a film ever at Carnival. All
the morning shows had 100 percent occupancy. We had shows as early as 5.30
am in Bengaluru and it was
housefull. Advance bookings took up 85-90 percent of seats for Friday and for the rest of the extended weekend 70
percent has been booked as of now."
