Karan Taruni said “This will be a big negative for exhibitors as it will also postpone other large Hindi and regional releases slated for January; cash burn for the chains would go up substantially even if cinemas are open without large scale content as it’s a high operating leverage business. It was only large scale content that was driving larger footfalls in the last 3-4 months of operation.”

He doesn’t see releasing the film before March- April when the situation will be completely normalized.

Delhi Government had ordered the closing of theatres, multiplexes, spas and other areas which may be a reason for the hike in Covid cases.
