How Hollywood alienated a big chunk of Indian moviegoers in 2024

With a 17% dip in box office, 2024 marked one of Hollywood's weakest years in India in the past decade

- Lata Jha

Hollywood films commanded a big premium at Indian box office in 2024, with average ticket prices soaring to ₹245, significantly outpacing local language cinema, said the latest Ficci-EY media and entertainment report.

However, theatre owners are pushing back against this high-pricing strategy, warning that it is discouraging footfall, particularly in small towns, contributing to one of Hollywood's weakest box-office performances in the country in nearly a decade.

The average Hollywood ticket price of ₹245 towered over the all-India average of ₹134 and handily beat local languages like Hindi (₹203), the report said.

Theatre owners emphasize that despite dubbing efforts, Hollywood's insistence on high ticket prices in India is alienating a significant portion of the movie-going population at a time when fewer films are achieving commercial success.

Vibe coding: Make way for intuition-driven software

New jargon emerges regularly in the world of software development. Most terms vanish quickly, but ever so often, a term bubbles up from the cultural stew and goes mainstream—not because it introduces a breakthrough technology, but because it captures a shift in how people think about software development. ‘Vibe coding’ is one such phrase. It’s a term that reveals more about the future of programming than its whimsical name suggests.
