Marzdi Kalianiwala, VP- Business Intelligence and Marketing, BookMyShow said, "Movie watching in India is not just an activity but rather an experience that we share with friends and family. In most cases, this experience remains incomplete unless we eat out with them either before or after the movie. Since we know when and where our user is consuming the content, we are able to ensure that relevant and highly contextual offers are targeted towards them, thus strengthening the overall proposition through MyCoupons for our users. We have witnessed an extremely warm and rapid response to MyCoupons across all markets, with adoption rates growing at as high as 200 percent month-on-month.We are now aggressively working towards expanding this to other markets and delighting many more users with our offering.
