Actress Sonakshi Sinha, ahead of her film Nikita Roy, shared that rising ticket prices and the ease of at-home content are key reasons why regular families are visiting theatres less, despite the availability of quality family films.Speaking to IANS, Sonakshi Sinha clarified that the issue isn’t the lack of family-friendly films, but the rising cost and reduced accessibility of the theatrical experience, which are deterring regular audiences. “I don’t think family stories are missing at all. I feel families are not going–that’s a different story. There is no lack of films being made, and there is no lack of family films being made. I just feel that content-wise, there are a lot more options. Also, the theatre-going experience has become very expensive for a regular family. So, I think there are a lot of factors that affect why people are not going to theatres as much. But they are there–the stories are there, the films are there,” Sonakshi explained, emphasizing that the issue lies not in the content, but in accessibility and changing viewer habits.
