Sale of liquor in theaters soon..!?

The issue of seeking permission to sell liquor in theaters with the aim of increasing revenue has caused controversy. Earlier, if you want to watch new films, you have to go to the theater. But in the current period, you can watch new films on OTT while staying at home. Films are coming to OTT within a month of their release in theaters. Due to this, the number of people going to theaters is also decreasing significantly. Some of these films are being released directly on OTT. Thus, the plight of theaters gradually closing down is also continuing here. Single-screen theaters are gradually disappearing with the advent of multiplexes. In the current period, people watch films only in multiplex theaters. Multiplex companies are taking various steps to increase the number of people visiting. In this regard, the latest request made by PVR Inox has become a topic of discussion.
That is, PVR Inox theaters in Bengaluru and gurgaon have sought permission to sell alcohol. The company has said that it has come forward to introduce such programs with the aim of increasing revenue and giving fans a premiere experience. Initially, they sought permission to implement this only in a few theaters. This has become a topic of discussion on social media. Until now, people who have consumed alcohol were not allowed inside the theater. But netizens are criticizing that if this plan is implemented, theaters will turn into liquor shops. Some also criticize that if alcohol is sold in theaters like this, theaters will become unsafe places for women. There are also voices of opposition now saying that this should not be allowed.
