Connplex opens in remote city of Bihar

Cinema and Entertainment are an intrinsic part of India and Indians. There was a time when India had over 20,000+ cinema screens across the country.

Almost every town with a population of over 1 lakh people had a cinema screens for themselves, across the country.

From around the turn of the new millennium, the number of standalone theatres have dwindled and there are currently no more than 5,000+ screens in the country.

The likes of PVR, Inox, Cinneapolis and many others have flooded the landscape of the country, opening multiplexes (more than 4 screens) across the top cities in India, especially inside Malls.

Bhagalpur, Bihar finally has its own luxury cinema, and Connplex Luxuriance Cinemas has truly lived up to the name and occassion.

From the moment one steps inside, the visitors are greeted with an ambience that rivals any high-end cinema across the top metro cities in India.

The seats are incredibly comfortable, the sound system is top-notch, and the screen quality is crystal clear.

The attention to detail in every aspect, from the decor to the service, makes it an outstanding movie-watching experience, say cinema goers in the town.

It’s fantastic to see a state like Bihar getting such a world-class facility.

This place is a game-changer for entertainment in the city.

Connplex curently operates 22 locations currently in Northern India and is poised to grow the number of screens in the months to come.

The Indian film exhibition industry is estimated to be INR 20,000 Cr annually. Telugu and Tamil language films release over 500 movies annually between them while Hindi language movie releases are over 500 annually.

All other language films together release over 1,000 films a year.

With the extended lockdowns during Covid-19, entertainment consumption patterns have vastly changed across the Indian landscape.

Avid cinephiles are currently spoilt for choice on OTT platforms such as Amazon Prime, Sony Liv and Disney + Hotstar for Indian language films and the likes of Netflix for international language films.

With the opening of newer screens in smaller towns, it is expected to feed the needs of the younger generation which is actively seeking entertainment options beyond their electronic devices.
