Dispute with multiplex

Along with this, another reason could also be that the dispute with the multiplex had a great impact on the earnings of the film ‘Bandar’. Just before the release of the film, the makers had a dispute with the multiplex chains (PVR, Inox and Cinepolis) regarding screen allotment. The makers had kept selected shows as per their wish. It is believed that the makers tried to run the film on the basis of mouth publicity instead of the opening weekend show, which resulted in losses.

Heavy damage caused by clash
