Braving low turnout during pandemic, city theatres to screen films in truncated manner

Owners of some single-screen Kolkata theatres who were mulling suspension of screening from Friday due to low turnout at reopened cinema halls, reversed their decision, saying the show will go on in a truncated manner, after their counterparts in Mumbai decided to open doors to viewers despite risks. The development in Maharashtra with cinema hall owners in the western state deciding to operate has motivated the owners here to run cinema halls even with one show, a spokesman of the Eastern India Motion Pictures Association (EIMPA) said. "If Mumbai, the hub of Hindi film industry with a large number of theatres, can take the risk of operating cinema halls amid lack of new content and fear of the audiences contracting COVID-19, why not Kolkata?" he asked.
