The 10th of August is a holiday in South India’s offices.
In a surprising turn of events, numerous workplaces across South India have announced a day off on August 10, which coincides with the release date of the movie ‘Jailer‘. This phenomenon isn’t limited to just Chennai or Madurai; even offices in other cities like Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Thanjavur, Vishakapatnam, Mysuru, Ellore, Thiruvananthapuram, and Kochi have declared holidays. Many prominent companies are going a step further by distributing complimentary movie tickets to their employees, enabling them to enjoy the film.
Several companies have used their social media accounts, particularly on platforms like X (formerly Twitter), to share their official holiday schedules. Consequently, a significant number of individuals have already made advance bookings for the movie, causing popular multiplexes in Thiruvananthapuram, Chennai, and Bengaluru to be fully booked.
