Digital marketing is being used extensively to market bollywood movies. It includes creating a microsite, facebook/twitter/youtube profiles, hangout with movie stars, promotions, social media buzz & others. Youtube hits, social media reach/share/amplification & other metrics predict how the movie will perform post release. Indian Institute of Management- Bangalore (IIMB) has created a case study on bollywood movies & social media activities.
The case study has been done by Suhruta Kulkarni, U Dinesh Kumar and Karthika A S of IIMB. The case study has now been published by Harvard Business Publishing.
