After decades of filmmaking, the hindi film industry, also known as bollywood, appears to be at a turning point unlike any other upheaval it has experienced. Since january 2021, 43 hindi films have received an average rating of just 5.9, far lower than the 7.3 rating of the 18 hindi dubbed films. According to a study by the Economic Research Department of the bank of india-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>state bank of india, a one-point increase in the IMDB rating results in an increase in revenue of Rs 17 crore. Single-screen theatre attendance has decreased, and movies are now released to multiplex audiences. The price of admission is 3x higher at multiplexes than at single-screen theatres. The hefty entertainment tax for hindi movies is another factor in the expensive ticket pricing.
It's interesting to note that 62% of single-screen theatres are located in South india, with North india accounting for only 16% and the West for 10% of all single-screen theatres.

According to a survey by the state bank of India's Economic Research Department, more than 50% of individuals use OTTs for more than 5 hours per month, hence the surge in OTT is predicted to reduce moviegoers and movie theatre earnings.
