This year the IPL event is all set to debut live on the big screen. About 500 screens across the country will telecast the live IPL matches.

UFO Moviez, who is the technology partners in the IPL event, is optimistic with their offering.

As content rights holders are charging nominal sums for screening IPL matches, as low as Rs 3,000 for single screen theatres and Rs 7,500 for multiplexes per match and multiple options and variations are available, like a discounted 10 or 20-match package or a flat 50 - 50 revenue sharing basis, theatre owners have a series of options available.
