“It is wonderful to know that Network208 is organising the 5th edition of Big Cine Expo after a gap of two years at Chennai. Big Cine Expo is held in high esteem for all stakeholders in the cinema exhibition industry as a means to network with the who’s who in the film business. The last two years have been quite challenging for the film exhibition industry due to the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. But thanks to the movie-going culture and love for films among audiences, we have started witnessing a ‘V’ shape recovery in the Theatrical and Film business. This year, PVR is celebrating an important milestone in its 25th year of operations and we wish the organisers and TheatreWorld all success for the expo in this landmark year” says Chairman and Managing Director, PVR Limited, Ajay Bijli.
“The exhibition business in India is the most ignored aspect of film industry. I have always been a great believer in the strength of India’s exhibition sector; I think Big Cine Expo is the only event which brings single-screen, multiplexes, specialised distribution, technology and all kinds of aspects under one roof and celebrates them. I am really excited to be a part of this event. I want to thank everyone for honouring me but more than that I want to be present with the experts and learn how we can collaborate and innovate to take our film industry forward and ensure that we have good cinema exhibition in every single part of India” says Director, screenwriter and author, Vivek Agnihotri.
“Domestic as well as international entities unite together, socialize and share their thoughts. I’m really looking forward to attend the event and witness some great work and some innovative concepts. Such initiatives are really helpful for entrepreneurs in the cinema industry and ancillary businesses” says filmmaker Subhash Ghai.
“Of all the awards that I have received, receiving this award at Big Cine Expo as an appreciation for my contribution means much more because I would rather get a packed house in a theatre than five star reviews. I have witnessed the journey of cinemas from sitting on wooden seats to the quality that is provided today. I have travelled over, and nowhere in the world is the cinematic experience better than India’s, our quality and standards are unmatched” said filmmaker, choreographer and actor Farah Khan.
Despite the pandemic and its aftermath, India continues to emerge as one of the fastest growing economies with the entertainment sector playing an essential role. With an immense amount of groundwork done in the past three years, Big Cine Expo is geared up to offer a thriving environment for exhibitors and limitless networking. It offers an opportunity to both national and international manufacturers and supplies to present their products and services as well as to share their industry knowledge.
Professionals attending Big Cine Expo 2022 will include theatre owners, design consultants, equipment manufacturers, system integrators, project management professionals, distributors, studios, industry stakeholders and the user community for single-screen and multiplex cinema entertainment in Asia and India.
