Uncertainty Looms Over The Future Of Single-screen Theatres, Salman

Salaman Khan, who announced the release of his upcoming movie Radhe Shyam in single-screen theatres opines that uncertainty over the business looms single-screen theatres and these theatres reverberate a 'kabristan' (graveyard) sort of feeling, as no one goes there to watch films. His new film Radhe is helmed by Prabhu Deva and features Disha Patani as the lady lead. It also has the star cast of Randeep Hooda and Jackie Shroff in pivotal roles. The movie is set to release in theatres on Eid. The film is announced as a single screen entertainer, but Salman indicates the scene is fairly grim for the common big-screen exhibitors right now.

Salman also has other movies lined-up for release which includes 'Antim', 'Tiger 3', 'Kick 2', and 'Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali'. He feels that three films of his are ready for release, and there is a problem with single-screen theatres as there are very few films being released over there. He sympathizes with the single-screen owners and feels they have no other option than to run them, and also acknowledges the fact that there are so many theatres that have shut down due to financial reasons. He feels ominous about these signs and is worried about the future of the business.
