At the special screening of his upcoming short film Paath, the iconic actor Jackie Shroff revealed his joy upon learning that popcorn prices in theatres have been slashed. For Jackie, the news brought back fond memories of watching movies in theatres, a nostalgic experience that holds a special place in his heart. Jackie Shroff who appealed to UP CM Yogi Adityanath to reduce popcorn prices during the CM's visit to Mumbai earlier this year, is extremely happy to see this being implemented. 

As a true cinema lover, he wanted to ensure that everyone can enjoy the full cinematic experience without breaking the bank, and it is finally happening. Acknowledging the impact of big stars like Shahrukh Khan, who has a loyal and devoted fan following, Jackie says how their movies draw audiences to theatres consistently and such loyalty reflects the true beauty of the theatrical experience, as it did for SRK's recent movie ‘Pathaan’.
