Own Correspondent: After watching the movie ‘Lipstick’ starring Pooja Cherry, you will get biryani. A packet of biryani is given to the audience with every ticket at the traditional Jhongkar Cinema Hall in Dhunat Upazila of Bogra.
Hall authorities have launched this special offer from Saturday to attract visitors. The matter has given rise to discussions in the area, while the number of visitors is also increasing.
According to local sources, Jhangar cinema hall owned by Isa Khan was established in 1984 in Dhunot town. In 2014, the exhibition of films in the hall was stopped due to lack of audience. After a long decade, the authorities have again started showing films in Jhangkare from last April 20.
Currently, the film ‘Lipstick’ starring Adar Azad and Pooja Cherry, released this Eid-ul-Fitr, is being screened in the hall. The film ‘Lipstick’ is produced by Kamruzzaman Roman.
The number of seats in Jhangar cinema hall is 500. The price of each ticket is 100 rupees. Now every visitor is given a packet of Biryani along with the ticket. The authorities said that this free food system will continue for the next one month.
‘Lipstick’ films are being screened daily at 12 noon, 3 pm, 6 pm and 9 pm. But due to extreme heat, the attendance of visitors is less at 12 noon and 3 pm every day.
However, at 6 pm and 9 pm, the hall is full of visitors. The hall authorities say that the response from the audience has been as expected.
A visitor coming to the hall said, ‘I didn’t believe it at first. I heard from someone and came here to watch the movie. This is the first time that you get free biryani with a ticket in the cinema hall.
Imran Hossain, Managing Director of Dhunte Jhangar Cinema Hall said, ‘We are getting good response for giving free biryani with tickets. We have taken this measure to attract visitors.
He said, ‘We are not doing business as before, but we are hoping that if the producers make good films, the audience will go to the cinema hall again.’
