According to an entertainment portal, Zara Hatke Zara Bachke sold approximately 2.5 Lakh tickets for free in the Buy One Get One Free scheme. The average price per ticket was Rs 250 amounting to a gross of Rs 6.25 crore. The money was beared by producer Dinesh Vijan and it has cost him Rs 5.30 crore on nett terms.
The offer was still valid on Monday on the initial 10K tickets. The scheme is expected to shut from tomorrow and will reopen over the second weekend. The report states that by the end of the offer, nearly 3 lakh tickets would be given for free to the audience, costing Rs 7.50 crore to the producer.
