Word of Mouth (WOM) Meter - It is a meter that will suggest whether theater going audiences have accepted a film or not. Whenever a film is released we will take feedback from audiences who have watched the film in theaters.
We will ask them to rate the film on a scale of 10. Samples will be collected from metros and also from a few interior towns of India. We will give a Word of Mouth rating on a scale of 10 for each releasing upcoming film. If we have enough samples for a new film released we will update it in our section.
However, a new released initial word of mouth may vary with each passing day as more samples are collected. Hope you all dear readers like this new initiative and do give us more feedback on this so that we can have more inputs to make the model more stable in the coming days.
