Mumbai: Cinemax launched its first property, a three-screen multiplex in Kolkata at Mani Square Mall, Maniktala Road on 25 December. The property opened with the release of the Aamir Khan-starrer Ghajini.

The new property is Cinemax’s second in the Eastern region of the country after its launch at Guwahati in 2007. This is also the first time that two multiplexes have opened their properties together at one place. IMAX launched its new property alongside Cinemax at the Mani Square Mall.

Cinemax will host 758 seats with three screens. IMAX’s one screen will house 450 seats.
