Common people cannot afford multiplexes- DasMunsi

Speaking at the valedictory session of ‘ India – The Big Picture’ Conference 2007, Sri Dasmunsi advocated for low cost theatres. He further said that in the long run digitalization has to ensure that technology is made available at affordable cost to sustain the cinema – seeing habits of the common man. He said, of late building up of good theatres is confined only to set up multiplexes which a common film goer cannot afford. Additional investments on creating more single screen theatres are warranted, he added.He further said that the core group set up by the Ministry on Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) has made its presentation to the Ministry and a view in this regard would be finalized by this year end.
