Meanwhile, several big Bollywood movies were also re-released in theatres after cinema halls were allowed to operate with certain SOPs. Kedarnath, period drama Tanhaji, Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, Thappad, Malang and the 2019 hit War were on the list. As part of the Unlock 5 guidelines issued on September 30, the government gave the green signal to cinema halls, theatres and multiplexes, which were allowed to operate “with up to 50 per cent seating capacity” from October 15. The final decision, however, was left to the states involved. In Maharashtra, cinema halls opened earlier this month but were allowed to function at only 50% capacity.
Directed by Abir Sengupta, Indoo Ki Jawani also stars Aditya Seal and comedian Mallika Dua.
