Three of the biggest multiplex chains of India – PVR Cinemas, INOX and Cinepolis are coming together to celebrate 50 years of Yash Raj Films in cinemas this Diwali. YRF, through its 50 years marketing initiative, has decided to support multiplexes by giving its library, without charging any fee. YRF has, thus, joined hands with the exhibition circuit in a bid to pull people to cinemas this festive season, as the sector tries to cope with the new normal.

After extensive discussions, all parties have also decided to cap the ticket price to just Rs. 50 for all films because YRF and the exhibitors want people to come back to the theatres. The coronavirus pandemic saw the exhibition industry revenue come to a stand-still as central and state COVID-19 guidelines kept theatres shut across India for about seven months. Yash Raj Films Big Screen Celebration initiative has brought the top multiplex chains to come under one roof with a collective aim to restart the theatrical business.

“At YRF, audience delight sits at the centre of our universe and at the onset of our 50th year, we are stoked to begin the Big Screen Celebration initiative. Now audience can enjoy many of our classics and iconic movies on the big cinema screen and relive the experience of watching movies in the theatres,” says Manan Mehta, Sr. VP Marketing and Merchandising.

YRF’s iconic blockbusters like Kabhie Kabhie, Silsila, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Dil To Pagal Hai, Veer-Zaara, Bunty Aur Babli, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Ek Tha Tiger, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Band Baaja Baarat, Sultan, Mardaani, Dum Laga Ke Haisha, among many others will be screened as part of YRF Big Screen Celebration initiative across the country.

The contribution of Yash Raj Films to the Indian film industry has been unmatched. With every project that it has undertaken, YRF has brought glory to Indian Cinema over the past 50 years. Every release from the YRF banner creates a huge amount of anticipation, interest and appeal of its own in the hearts of its fans. It is a privilege to host their most iconic movies, from classics that transcend time such as Kabhie Kabhie and Silsila, to the most recent favorites like War and  Sultan. We invite our patrons to come and enjoy YRF’s Big Screen Celebration initiative and relive their most memorable cinema moments in our safe and hygienic cinemas.”
