The partnership program in Malayalam film industry kick starts with the Vineeth Srinivasan-starrer Aana Alarolodu Alaral.
The multiplex partnership adopts various ways to promote movies. First, the Carnival Theaters in Kerala would be screening customized video clips starring the actors of the movie. These clips would be played at the start of every show. Through this video the star would convey a message or highlight any specific plot of the upcoming movie.
Dedicated standees and posters of a film that's being promoted will be displayed at prime locations within Carnival Theaters across Kerala.
The partnered movie would be provided with peak show timings and movie screens.
Print and social media campaigns will be launched for promoting the partnered movies.
Carnival Cinemas, which is the largest multiplex chain in the country, has its presence in 110 cities with 160 operational locations and 425 screens across India including 39 in Kerala.
Shrikant Bhasi, chairman of Carnival Group, said that the new initiative would promote good movies along with state-of-the-art facilities, contemporary sound & projection, high spirited customer service, among other things.
The vision of the project is to reach 1000 screens by the end of 2018, he added.
