Believe it or not, today is National Popcorn Day!

Today is National Popcorn Day. It is a day that celebrates the intrinsic link between movie-going and this universally loved snack. Watching a film in a theatre is absolutely incomplete without digging into a bag of delicious popcorn.

Cinepolis designed an infographic as a tribute to the light, fluffy, flavoured favourite of cine-lovers. They also conducted a study of popcorn consumption patterns in India which suggests that the money spent on this snack has almost doubled between 2012 and 2015 and currently stands at Rs 2,034 Crores!

The most loved flavours in the country are butter salted, caramel and cheese. The combination of a cold beverage and popcorn stands out as the most preferred snack inside cinema halls which comes as no surprise.

The key takeaway from the data - ‘60% people buy popcorn and 100% eat!’
