With various leave and license agreements between us and PVR expiring on 31st March 2022, the Company will launch a new brand for the film exhibition business in Q1 FY23. We plan to create a strong consumer-oriented brand in this segment.Considering the fact that as the exhibition business inches closer to a return to normality, post-COVID, we see a strong pipeline of movies coming up in the next year, and patrons' excitement to return to theatres will be quite high. We are seeing a big wave of opportunity and have big plans for growth in this business."This story is provided by NewsVoir.will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.
