The actor drew the names of four lucky contestants and explained that they could only pick four as the theatre will be able to run only four screenings in one day.
They noted, on the day of the challenge on 17 April, the winners will arrive at Jazz Multimedia's office from where they will then be taken to theatre to watch "Jinn" at 8pm. Jaaz Multimedia will go live during the challenge while the reaction of the contestants will also be shared from their respective social media accounts.
Even though 25 thousand people applied, only four were given the chance to watch the movie alone. The number not only enraged the fans but also raised questions about the authenticity of the lottery.
Some even questioned the need of a raffle draw for this.
Jaaz Multimedia on 8 April announced on their social media that Tk1 lakh will be given to anyone who can watch the movie 'Jinn' alone in an empty hall.
Earlier, Jaaz revealed that this was not a marketing stunt but the announcement was made in the spur of the moment.
