After the state government had announced that the entertainment tax would be included with the cinema tickets apart from the existing GST rates, there was a lot of commotion and confusion among film-goers as to what the final decision would be. When we take a look at the online ticket booking websites, we can see that none of the theaters have increased the prices as of now, even though it was announced that the changes would go live from today.

Owing to this confusion, we contacted Ruban Mathivanan, the Managing Director of GK Cinemas, to find out what is cooking between the theater owners. When asked about it he said, "We haven't made any changes because the government order has been made, but we haven't received the copy of it yet. There is a meeting scheduled to be held tomorrow, and we will take decisions only after that."

We are hoping to expect a decision very soon on what the final ticket rates would be. Will tomorrow's meeting give us a few answers? Let us wait and see.
