Lucky Baskhar gets extra shows in Kerala and TN

For the uninitiated, Lucky Baskhar had a limited release in Kerala, with around 170 screens across the state. When it comes to Tamil Nadu, the movie was initially released on just under 70 screens. Even though the Dulquer Salmaan starrer created a stir with its promising teaser, the lack of pre-release hype was quite evident in the other states. However, things have taken a different turn after the release. The Venky Atluri film impressed cinephiles with its excellent making and performances. The recent updates suggest that Lucky Baskhar has received a massive increase in its screen count.
