Multiplex in Kashmir: After three decades, once again a crowd of people watching cinema halls will gather in the valley. It is starting from Tuesday (September 20). And after 32 years in the valley, it will start with Aamir Khan’s film ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’. Earlier, due to the terror of terrorist organizations in the valley, people here had stopped going to theaters and cinema halls were also closed here.

In the 90s, when terrorism was spreading in Kashmir, even Kashmiri citizens had stopped watching cinema in cinema halls, in the shadow of terror, cinema halls gradually closed down.

Till the 1980s, there used to be about a dozen single screen theaters in the Valley. Due to the constant threats from terrorist organizations, the owners of the cinema halls had closed the business.
