The wait is finally over, the multiplex chain PVR Cinemas on Thursday (July 29, 2021) announced that its theatres will be reopening from today (July 30, 2021) with all of its staff fully vaccinated against COVID-19. So in other words, now your movie experience is going to be fun as well as safe.
The PVR cinemas in a statement on Thursday said that its cinemas will resume operations from July 30 in states and union territories that have allowed theatres to reopen.
The decision comes as the country is witnessing a steady decline in COVID-19 infections and many states namely Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have permitted the resumption of operations in cinema halls.
Even the Delhi government had allowed the reopening of theaters from Monday with 50 percent capacity. To encourage and thank people who got vaccinated during the nationwide vaccination drive, PVR has introduced a 'JAB Offer' for the customers.
As part of the scheme, one vaccinated guest can get another ticket free on select content as well as one F&B Combo free with the purchase of another in the first week of reopening.
