This 80 years Old theatre was converted into a Multiplex Cinema Hall owning to the increasing trend in Multiplexes in Delhi in 2009. It is centrally located and lies in close proximity to hip and happening restaurants & food outlets in Connaught Place hence making it one of the preferred Movie Theatre destination through the 1970s up till today. The original Theatre housed a Single Screen Hall that was opened in 1939 that later was converted into a two-screen multiplex by (then) Big Cinemas (now Odeon Carnival Cinemas after the acquisition of Big Cinemas by later in 2015) that took 3 good years to construct. And now this is its third mega makeover – it was first renovated in 1960s.

“It’s been incredible to see the transformation underway at the cinema. With new screens being constantly added and old ones getting renovated, thanks to the chain’s focused aggressive expansion, movie goers will have even more locations to choose from in the future.
