Cinemax, one of India's largest multiplex chains, is in the process of adding 30 new screens to its existing 105 screens across India in the next six to eight months. The new screens, would be located mostly in the western and southern States, and would entitle an investment of Rs 45 crore.
The exhibition theatre chain expects to clock revenues of about Rs 245 crore this fiscal, as compared to Rs 180 crore last fiscal on the back of some forthcoming releases such as Tees Maar Khan and Gulliver's Travel, a 3D Hollywood flick, scheduled later this month. In the next fiscal, the company expect a 30-40 per cent revenue growth, with 22 B plus and A plus Bollywood releases and 21 English movies, mostly 3D action flicks, lined up for the year. Also, the 30 new screens will make significant contributions to the revenues.
The multiplex chain is looking for acquiring small, regional chains and standalone multiplexes, as part of an industry trend involving the four or five major players looking at consolidating their networks through acquisitions. crackcrack
