Cinema Halls and Multiplexes Reopen in UP, But Viewers Missing

District Magistrate Abhishek Prakash, who visited a multiplex for inspection, asked the manager to note down the names and addresses of all viewers at the entrance. He also said that cashless transaction should be done in the multiplex.

Meanwhile, Avinash Tripathi, a viewer who had reached a single screen theatre, returned after he found that only re-run of old films were available.

“Theatres should screen films that already have had an OTT release because not everyone has watched films on the digital platform. Who is going to watch re-runs of films that are, in any case, being shown on movie channels every week?” he said.
