What Will Happen When Theatres Open Again?
By: Tupaki Desk | 3 April 2020 7:57 AM GMTThe theatres in India have been shut down from the past few weeks and the owners and distributors are facing losses due to this. But they could do nothing as large gatherings may prove to be dangerous at these times. When the lockdown rule is taken off, theatre owners and distributors may have two situations in front of them.
With the fear of Corona still in people's minds, they may not show interest in coming to the theatres which may result in the immediate releases getting severely affected. We don't know when the fear goes away and people start going back to the way things were before.
The other situation is that movie lovers who got starved with lack of film releases may rush into theatres which results in big revenues for theatre owners and distributors. They are hoping for this scenario to happen but people's welfare comes first.
We need to wait and see how the new releases fare at the box-office. There are a few people who suggest that the theatres need to have a gap from seat to seat and run only with 50% occupancy in the beginning few weeks.
