'Mary Kom' knocks out entertainment tax in UP

It seems Indian States are competing to honor the biopic on the five-time World Champion boxer M.C. Mary Kom, by declaring the movie tax-free. It's Uttar Pradesh's turn now, to waive the entertainment tax on the much-awaited Priyanka Chopra-starrer "Mary Kom", after the State of Maharashtra.

"Thank u @yadavakhilesh for helping #MaryKom's story get a bigger reach in UP. The film is officially tax free a week before release. Awesome", Priyanka tweeted on Sunday.

The movie, co-produced by Viacom18 Motion Pictures and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's banner, is set to release on Teacher's Day. It will launch Omung Kumar as an independent director. Click the Movie button below for more info:
