Chandigarh, Feb. 5 -- Moviegoers in Chandigarh may soon enjoy cheaper cinema tickets on weekdays, with the UT administration planning to introduce a flexible movie ticket pricing system from April.

The move will align Chandigarh with Punjab and Haryana, where variable pricing based on demand is already in place.

Not just will the ticket prices differ on weekdays and weekends, cinemas will also be able to charge lower rates for films with less demand and higher rates for high-demand screenings.

Chandigarh deputy commissioner (DC) Nishant Yadav said the proposal has been sent to the excise department for comments. "Once we receive their response, we plan to implement the flexible pricing system from April this year," he said.
