A multiplex is coming up in Srinagar by September, which will be the first to be established in the capital of Jammu Kashmir, after over thirty years.
As per details available, the multiplex has a seating capacity of at least 520 people and has bid 3 cinema halls.
“To maintain Kashmir’s art and design, a Kashmiri wood ‘khatambandh’ is used in the lobbies which gives it a Kashmiri culture look,” Farooq Ahmed, a local artist said
According to the report, This multiplex has several food courts and other entertainment facilities, attracting children.
After the closure of cinema theatres in the early ’90s, the first attempt to open cinema halls was made in 1999, when movie theatres – Neelam, Regal, and Broadway – opened in Srinagar.
However, militant attacks on Cinemas led to the closing down of cinema halls across the valley.
