Theatre owners, viewers put off by renewed restrictions

‘The move has come at a time when audiences are just starting to return to cinema halls’
Theatre owners and cinema aficionados in the city are disappointed with the new norms announced by the government on Friday to maintain 50% capacity in theatres as part of tightening of measures to check the spread of COVID-19, especially Omicron variant.
Theatre owners, who reluctantly prepared their hall as per the government directions, say the move has come at a time when audiences are just starting to return. They are worried about the fresh restrictions, especially since the last two years destroyed their source of revenue.
