Why meme pages matter so much for film marketing

Ask any South Indian film producer about release week and meme pages will come up. They have become one of the most powerful film promotion channels.

They are where audiences talk

Meme pages mirror what audiences are already joking about. A film that shows up there feels like part of the conversation, not an ad.
