Salman Khan new strategy for Hero: Promises 100 autographed tickets

Coming out with a unique way to promote his production venture ‘Hero’, which released on Friday, superstar Salman Khan gave a shout out to his fans to send in their tickets after watching ‘Hero’, which he will sign personally.

The ‘Dabangg’ actor took to Twitter to share that he will be signing hundred movie tickets.

“Watch ‘Hero’. Send me your ticket. I will sign 100 tickets. One of them could be yours. Send your ticket(s) to P.O. Box 9808 Bandra (w) post office, Mumbai 4000050. And mention your name, address and twitter handle,” Salman tweeted on Friday.

Directed by Nikhil Advani, ‘Hero’ is a remake of Subhash Ghai- directed 1983 film of the same name. The film introduces two new talents to Hindi filmdom– Suniel Shetty’s daughter Athiya and Aditya Pancholi’s son Sooraj.

Salman also noted that it is his way to take his admirers back to the past and turn to the ‘original way’.

“This is the original way to mail. This is how it was before e-mail and messaging and all.. and if you don’t know where the post office is, toh ask your mom” Salman said.

    Tiger,navin,hrithik,anand _original and some other bhaitards found sleeping near postoffices.Even after strict warning by police they were’nt ready to leave the place,result:Lathicharged by police.

  • hero will not be counted as salman’s hit/flop. So his promotions is not for himself. Saksham,salman does very little promotions for his big blockbusters. Srk does too much promotions for his own film.

  • Hero is made less than 25 cr. 20cr is already Recovered from satellite+music. In worst case hero will earn 20cr distributor shares. That’s means 10cr profit. Also Bhai earns more than 150cr per year

  • Shetty has planned a similar strategy for Varunwale this Christmas by offering 100 lucky fans a chance to win a signed lungi each by a superstar after they buy a ticket for the Varun Kriti starrer…!

    Yes thats right- apparently South Superstar Rajnikanth will sign the 100 lungis…!

  • For a superstar of his caliber. This is cheap.
    He has already promoted it a lot but this is an altogether different level.
    Only one word this is ridiculously cheap.

  • Now die you all SALMAN fans… You were bashing SRK for his promotional strategy….

    Now get rusted in the hall watching this crap film ZERO !!!

  • @saksham. You don’t have to think of other fans feeling. You are very correct. Those names you mentioned Aamir Ajay Akshay Hritik can’t do such thing. Aamir and Ajay are power talents they can predict which movie will work which won’t. What I loved pre-drishyam was Ajay came out and said the public should not expect alot. From his looks yes he looked more happier and relaxed. Akshay kumar the same watch him when he promotes his movies. Normally he dosent say anything rather it’s the female actress that does the talking. Hritik we all know about our dearie. He dosent except on rare incidents. It’s a shame. You as a superstar should not promise sighning autographs of your fans with movie tickets During release of the movie. I expected Aditya pancholi to be making that move that said he has to be the producer of the movie. Salman knows that what the audience demand. He just don’t want to be called a failed producer that’s just the fact.

  • Srk fans, before barking you should know it is not a Salman starrer movie. He is doing it for sake of debutant leads to get a Hit at least which will help them get more offers !!!!! Salman will never do such things if it is own movie !!!!!!! Srk did it for his own sake n selfish. Salman is selfless !!!!!!!

  • @Saksham : Sorry !!! I don’t agree with you. Even Hrithik launched game, comic n toy merchandize during K3 was it not part of promotions ????

  • @saksham:
    Bang bang got 3300 screens in India but the makers & hrithik declared that Bang bang get 4500 screens. When Agnipath released hrithik declared that it collected 25cr on day one. But the actual was 22cr. Those things brought back the movies news. Don’t you think those things were more cheaper than giving autographs to his fans???

    Come to Akki. In 2010, during a fashion show Twinkle khanna opened the zip of akki in front of hundreds of people and cameras. Do you think anything could be cheaper than this tactic of promotion???

  • @bromance:
    Tere mooh pe ghee-shakkar. You predicted the same for BB and Kick but we all know the results..

  • salman khan blockbuster khan.
    two blockbuster in a single year
    prdp 350cr
    ps: ps: reason behind my praising
    is just to pleased bhai fans to
    support my flop idol arjunK

  • On the day ouatimd released, chennai ticket prices were halfed so people would not watch them akshay starrer.

    And those saying it is forcing bhai fans to watch the movie, you can just ask one of your friends who watched the film if you can have his ticket, so your logic makes no sense and is worse than bhojpuri logic.

  • Well he wants the newbies to succeed, so he’s doing everything he can to help them.But he barely promotes his own movies and they still become blockbusters. He has complete faith in his movies unlike some small stars.

  • I think he has said to sign the tickets if people send. so, there is no mandatory to watch. It is just that he is trying to use his stardom to help newcomers. There is nothing wrong with it if u can see his desperation to help two new comers in the btown. The man with great heart.
    Jaise hanuman ji ke sineme tumko siyapat ram milenge
    Sina chir ke dekho apna tumko Sal-Man milenege

  • @hrithik
    Yes he is doing it to introduce talent less actors in the industry.If he would have doing it for some talented person then it was ok but why to do these things for garbage.If you are his genuine fan you should ask him to promote such useless guys and stop making films to introduce and please other actors and their sons/daughters.If he is investing money then he should do it on good things.

  • @hrithik
    Dont talk of selfishness.Its salman money which is involved in the project so he is doing all this.He doesnot do it when he works for other banners because everyone cares for his own money.I will appreciate srk as he promote all his movies(His own production and also of other banners).so it shows who is selfish and who is not.Dont present salman like he is saint and dont have any concern with money and with other materialistic stuff.But the reality is everyone cares for money.I think you also do it

  • @hrithik
    SKF has produced three movies.Ist one was with Katrina sister( i thinkwhich isnt exactly bollywood movie,dont have much idea about it),2nd is hero.In both these movies he put merit aside and introduce those who dont have talent but contacts in industry.3rd is BB.And both BB and Hero are promoted much more than his regular movies.They added extra song in BB for promotional purpose.And they started it with teaser,trailer,songs,promotional song,dialogues promos and all that stuff.And about HERO we all know ,he is still promoting it.Apna paisa ae tou salman b selfish ban jata ha agar promotion karne ko ap selfishness kaho tou

  • @ hrithik :
    What a logic !
    If that is the case, then why Salman never helped Ayushmann, Varun, Siddharth, Tiger, etc etc.
    Main reason is that Salman produced this movie (so did SRK in CE), hence he followed this cheap promotional strategy .

  • @Babaji : At least we may be ready to face lathi charge for Salman what Akki fans can do ?? Just blabber on Bollywood sites n doesn’t even watch his movies when released in theaters n wait for TV premier n brag about TRP ratings !!!!!!! Lol

  • @hrithik,the man who can’t see anything besides mouth remake/masala genre at calling him doesn’t has any selfishness,darpok hai saaala,ROFL.and don’t you know VARUN and ALIA are the stars today whose names suggested by KING KHAN to KJO SIR and RED CHILLIES to produced it alongside DP?????anyways you bhojpuri can’t see anything besides salman,ROFL.

    at least OUR KING never struggled for 15 years (1994-2010) to get a leading starrer HGOTY just like our bhojpuri salwoman,why?

    Because BADSHAH KHAN RULES BOLLYWOOD from 1993.
