The Indian government has also allowed the reopening of cinemas amid the Covid-19 pandemic. One of the largest cinema chains in India, PVR Cinemas, stated that they started operations from 15 October, with the implementation of strict health protocols.
To narrow the space for transmission, cinemas ensure spacing of seats and arrange showtimes so that not too many viewers gather at one time.
However, cinema networks in several states with high levels of Covid-19 transmission did not want to take risks, including Mumbai as the host of Bollywood.
The state where Mumbai is located, Maharashtra, is indeed the region in India with the highest corona virus infection rate. Maharashtra accounts for 37 percent of the total death toll in India due to Covid-19.
