NEW DELHI:

Multiplex chain PVR Inox Ltd will now allow people to claim a partial refund if they leave a film mid-way, as part of efforts to widen its audience base and improve movie-going frequency.

However, there's a catch. People will need to pay a 10% premium over the ticket price to avail the FLEXI model.

The multiplex chain will roll out the initiative at 170 screens across Delhi and Gurugram in its pilot phase for select titles and shows.

One can log in to the PVR app and select titles flashing 'FLEXI' to be able to leave the show at any point and claim a partial refund. Go outside, scan the ticket or QR code at a touchpoint to record the time of leaving, and claim a 30-60% refund.
