As far as the marketing is concerned Gangurde says, "We have an advantage since we have our own screens so we are planning a lot of promotional activities in our screens besides that we have tied up with coke. We will be giving free music cds of our film with a pop-corn and coke combo purchase. Then we have the usual tie ups with radios, and the channels."
