These rates are for 1 week. Ad would get played once every time the movie is screened.  Advertiser can choose if they want to play ad before the start of the movie or during the interval. So on an average, a multiplex would play the ad 4 times per day and 28 times in a week.

In few cases when blockbuster movies are being played and there are too many advertisers, the ad might get played only 3 times per day. 

Let me explain this through an example.

For Rs 531, your ad of 1 sec will get played for one week once during each show.

Ad will be played at PVR Ambience Mall Gurgaon screen#6 having 152 seats.

If you ad is of 10 sec, the cost would be pro rated = 531 X 10 = Rs 5310/week

1. ​In case you ad in not in J2K format, there will be a cost involved in converting your ad from video or image to J2K. It costs Rs 1,750 for converting an image and Rs 2,500 for converting a video to J2K. This is applicable for most of the multiplex chains like PVR and Inox
2. For Video advertising your ad should have a censor certificate. In case that is not available, there will be an additional cost of Rs ,8500 to get the certificate
