Tamil Nadu Theaters Get Six Shows Daily!
15 Nov
Summary
- Six shows daily now allowed from 6 AM to 2:30 AM.
- The new order benefits smaller films and boosts competition.
- Council plans an event to honor CM Vijay for his approval.
Chief Minister Vijay has approved a significant policy change allowing Tamil Nadu theaters to screen up to six shows per day. This new order, effective from 6 AM to 2:30 AM, applies to the first seven days of a film's release, including weekends, festival days, and public holidays. The Tamil Film Producers Council expressed their gratitude for the swift approval.
The council believes this decision will help Tamil films better compete with releases in other states and will also benefit smaller movies by increasing their chances of securing screen time. Previously, Tamil Nadu followed a 9 AM first-show schedule, unlike neighboring states. The council is considering organizing a special event to honor Chief Minister Vijay and Minister Rajmohan for their support.
Discussions also touched upon producer welfare and industry growth. The association thanked the government for steps taken to release pending subsidies for producers covering the 2015-2022 period. The council committed to continued collaboration with the government to strengthen the Tamil film industry.
