Surongo is doing very good. 100 percent occupancy in all shows. People are not getting tickets of it unless advanced purchase I saw on news.
It's what happens when you have only 150 theaters for a country of 160 million population. 1 theatre per million population.

200 now. After bottoming out to just 100, it is now increasing. A lot of good movies are coming. Despite lack of of screens and budget, Bangla movies are flourishing with good plots and genuine, realistic acting. Even the biggest daily of West Bengal Anandabazar is taking note and acknowledging it. 'Surongo' movie will get release in West Bengal already decided.
Can you read Bangla?
ইদে মুক্তি পেয়েছে ছবি ‘সুড়ঙ্গ’, এর মাঝে লুকিয়ে কোন কাজটা করলেন আফরান নিশো?

People in Bangladesh watched and still watch more movies and dramas on Television, mostly the latter. Dramas are more popular. Pakistani dramas are also favored - as they are higher quality than Indian Saas-Bahu dramas.
Historically - India had much lesser TV ownership households compared to Bangladesh.
In 2022, TV ownership households in India are at 16% (226 Million Indian households).

Technological advancements like DTH and IPTV combined with the ever-changing content of the Indian television have had a positive impact on the television industry in the nation.

Whereas even in 2019, Bangladesh had 63% TV ownership households. It is probably much higher now.

Movies are a 3rd class medium in Bangladesh. Movie goers in Bangladesh (unlike India) are usually lower middle class folks. So this is their medium and hence the lack of popularity and low grade movies now, until recently. Kind of like your Bhojpuri garbage.
Better made art movies or other decent programming gets shown on Television, which was introduced in East Pakistan earlier than in India. Both B/W and color television.
I grew up watching top-shelf syndicated American shows and cartoons on Bangladesh Television which were probably unavailable in India. My dad recounted that they started off TV broadcasts in East Pakistan (when he was a kid) by showing re-runs of famous British/American TV shows like "I Dream of Jeannie", "Bewitched", "Lassie", "Flipper", "The Avengers" etc.
Older PDF members from Pakistan may recall how it was.
Daily Television broadcasts in West and East Pakistan started much earlier than in India.
Before satellite TV was introduced, Indian terrestrial TV coverage was lesser compared to Bangladesh.

Bangladesh is still ahead of India in sale and production of 4K and 8K TV's locally as they are very popular and there are high grade local mfrs. as opposed to overseas brands like Samsung and LG. I have personally observed that Bangladeshi households prefer larger (40 inch and up diagonal) TV's, whereas in India, the trend is smaller TVs (around 32~37" diagonal).
But this is off topic subject which you raised (reduced number of movie theaters today vs. 40/50 years ago).
Let's open a separate thread to discuss.
