Most NRIs miss “First Day First Show” screenings because they check theater websites instead of following the Kannada movie distributors directly. Distributors often announce confirmed theater lists days before tickets even go on sale online.

How to Request a Screening
Did you know you can bring a movie to your city? Most Kannada movie distributors are willing to open a show if you can guarantee a crowd.
- Gather a list of interested people (aim for 50+).
- Contact the distributor via their official social media page 2 weeks before release.
- Partner with your local Kannada Sangha to secure a bulk booking.
By following these Kannada movie distributors, you ensure that you never miss a premiere update again.
