Two Adlabs Cinemas open in north India; 13 more to follow in next 6 months
MUMBAI: Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group has opened two Adlabs Cinemas in North India – a 5-screen cinema at the Great India Place (GIP) in Noida and a 3-screen cinema at TDI Mall in Agra, two kilometers from the Taj Mahal, according to two separate official releases.
The new cinema at the GIP, North India‘s biggest shopping mall, is the only cinema at the mall. This will further strengthen the chain‘s presence in Delhi NCR, says the release, further adding that the next six months will see the rollout of at least 13 properties and 30 screens in North India.
While the seating capacity of the TDI mall Adlabs is 1,021 seats, the GIP Adlabs will have a total seating capacity of 1,220 seats. However, both cinemas will have world-class widescreen viewing screens, food and beverage offerings, crystal-clear DTS sound, superior Xenon projection systems and plush seats.
The new property in Noida will also have an exclusive Ebony Lounge, which features a 94-seat screen with fully reclinable seats, the best possible sound (provided by a standalone Bose Pipe Music system) and an attached lounge that offers an exclusive menu served by personalised and attentive staff as part of the “Silver Service.” A new and unique innovation will be the DJ system in the lobby which will play songs on request.
With regard to the new cinema in Noida, Adlabs Cinemas COO Tushar Dhingra said, “It‘s great to be the only cinema in India‘s largest mall where the biggest brands of India and the world also have a presence. The Great India Place is a shopping Mecca located in one of the fastest growing cities in India in terms of consumer spending and we see immense potential for this property.”
“The new cinema will not only be catering to the residents of the city but will also be another must-see for local as well as international tourists visiting this historic city. Agra will be getting a second landmark in the form of a truly world-class cinema. Watch out for more exciting new features at this property,” said Dhingra, commenting on the new opening in Agra.
The largest cinema chain in India, Adlabs Cinemas has 127 screens spread over 42 properties nationwide.

Dhurandhar returns to theatres worldwide on March 13 ahead of Dhurandhar The Revenge release
Jio Studios re-releases blockbuster across 500 screens globally before sequel
MUMBAI: The spy saga of Dhurandhar is gearing up for a big-screen encore before its next chapter arrives.
Ahead of the release of Dhurandhar The Revenge on March 19, Jio Studios and B62 Studios are bringing the original Dhurandhar back to cinemas worldwide in a rare international theatrical re-release.
The global blockbuster is returning across nearly 500 screens, including around 250 in India from March 12 and another 250 overseas beginning March 13.
For fans of the franchise, the move offers a chance to revisit the film that ignited the high-octane spy-action universe just days before the sequel lands in theatres. It also sets up a rare back-to-back big-screen experience, allowing audiences to relive the original before diving straight into the next chapter.
While re-releases of popular films are occasionally seen in India, international re-runs of Hindi films remain uncommon. The scale of the rollout reflects the growing global appetite for the franchise.
In North America alone, Dhurandhar will return to theatres across nearly 185 screens, highlighting the strong anticipation surrounding the upcoming sequel.
The excitement is set to build further with special Wednesday premiere shows of Dhurandhar The Revenge scheduled across the US and Canada on March 18, a day ahead of its global release. Many of these premieres will be hosted on premium large format screens, featuring wall-to-wall displays, immersive sound systems such as Dolby Atmos, enhanced projection and luxury seating.
These formats are typically reserved for major Hollywood event films, and early bookings suggest strong demand with several shows already sold out.
The recently released trailer of Dhurandhar The Revenge has also sparked buzz among exhibitors and trade circles, with expectations running high for the film’s international performance.
Dhurandhar The Revenge is written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar. The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.
Jio Studios presents a B62 Studios production, an Aditya Dhar film.
The spy-action thriller will release worldwide on March 19, 2026, in five languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
The film arrives in theatres globally on the occasion of Gudi Padwa and Ugadi, just ahead of Eid, setting the stage for a festive box office run.
