Valsad Cinema Ceiling Collapses Before 'Border 2' Screening
31 Jan
Summary
- Ceiling portion collapsed at Rajhans Multiplex in Valsad.
- The incident occurred just before the screening of Border 2.
- Fortunately, no injuries or casualties were reported during the event.

A portion of the POP ceiling at Rajhans Multiplex in Valsad collapsed moments before the 9:00 a.m. screening of Border 2 was set to begin. The incident occurred in Screen 1 while patrons were entering the auditorium.
Cinema management promptly cancelled the show and evacuated everyone present, averting a potential tragedy. No injuries or casualties were reported, as the audience had not yet fully settled in their seats.
This event has reignited discussions about safety and infrastructure maintenance in cinema halls, particularly older ones. It also brings to mind the tragic Uphaar Cinema fire in Delhi on June 13, 1997, which claimed 59 lives.
