- **Event Name**: Old Cinema halls of Shahjahanabad Purani Dilli heritage walk
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 01 Mar, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 01 Mar, 2026 at 12:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Before multiplexes and OTT, there were single-screen cinema halls—temples of Bollywood where whistles echoed, stars arrived for premieres, and cinema was a shared emotion. Join us for a heritage walk through Shahjahanabad (Purani Delhi) as we revisit the now-shut, iconic cinema halls that shaped India’s love affair with films since Independence. Each hall had its own personality—its loyal audience, favourite production houses, and directors who swore by it. We’ll explore stories of legendary screenings, star visits, and how many of these halls began as theatre spaces, later transforming into talkies when sound entered cinema. Today, most stand silent and anonymous—but their stories are anything but. Cinema halls we’ll trace: Moti, Excelsior, New Amar, Majestic, Kumar Talkies &amp; more
