No cinemas have their own amusement. You get bored or easily distracted at home. An post quarantine a lot of people will run to Cinemas

And BTW in countries like India no one is gonna pay to watch movies online when then there is 1000 pirated ways to watch for free

Does Radhe have any new release date ?

Not yet cos shooting is not complete . IMO he should just shelve it 😆

This would be the time to scrap and think and work hard on some new project. Cause he has all the free time in the world. (Wasn’t he offered the astronaut movie) But alas he’s busy making music videos with Jackie. Probably will go from Radhe to Kick 2 😆

Watching movies on big screen >>> at home

Same for me..watching a film in theater is such a thrill...I even liked that Sid-Katty film 😆 I tend to like most films that I watch in theater, only after 2-3 days I realise they are bad films 😆

People value their life over going to movies during this pandemic situation.

i have lost interest watching films in theaters long time back but yes i would love to experience jurassic world franschise on big screen thats a different level altogether i am a jurrasic fan be it in book and films as for BW films the interest gone long long time back many films i did not watch in theaters and regional films i don't watch in theaters the first and last regional film i watch in theater was vijay-asin starrer sivakasi i do understand tamil so no issues it was my cousin birthday and she is a big vijay fan

Why the whining , problem is mumbai and delhi are most affected and they are the biggest circuit,without them opening ,producers won't release films.

As for stardom, Akshay and ajay have given their small movies ,to OTT ,they have big projects that would only release on theatres.

Omg same!

I too am pro cinema over OTT but our stance will surely be affected and change with time if things don't get back to normal. Like we were supposed to flatten our curve in late July? But things are just getting worse. So doubt even if theatres open, even the craziest cinegoers will be ready to go despite all those ads by PVR, etc that they are keeping safety in mind.

Matlab is it even possible to sit in a crazy cold theatre wearing a mask and gloves and watching a 2.5 hrs long movie? And who will ensure that people in the theatre are wearing mask throughout and not coughing or sneezing? An environment like a theatre is a ticking bomb- cold, dark so no possibility to ensure rules are followed, community viewing for 2 long hours so things can spread very fast. So I really don't see any future of cinemas this year atleast. And this is coming from someone who watches every film in the theatre. It's better to change with times and be okay with watching things on a smaller screen that going to theatre for just 2 hr long joy and then coming back home and infecting your whole house and neighbours.
