Mumbai: In a move that’s set to shake up India’s cinema snack scene, Cinépolis India has announced its first-ever brand collaboration with Crax, one of the country’s most iconic and beloved snack brands. As part of this innovation initiative, the two giants are coming together to introduce a disruptive and delightfully bold new popcorn flavour, fusing the nostalgia of Crax Cheeseballs with the irresistible movie-time magic of Cinépolis popcorn. This one-of-a-kind limited edition flavour drop is poised to hit all Cinépolis outlets nationwide.
This collaboration marks a new chapter in the brand’s food & beverage journey. It signals a shift toward high-energy, pop-culture inspired snacking, where every bite has a story. By joining forces with Crax, a name known for its spirit and bold flavours, Cinépolis is delivering more than just popcorn, it’s creating an experience that starts at the concession counter and follows you right to your seat.
