Influential people in the film industry are trying their best to convince the government to open theatres so that films can be released. Government officials asked the theatre management and owners to come up with a plan on how they will ensure the safety of the people once the theatres are opened.
Even people are wondering how safety norms could be followed in malls and theatres. One can easily ensure safety in theatres by filling only half the capacity of seats to maintain social distancing. But how can the same be followed at the restrooms and eateries during the intervals?
Only when the theatres' management and malls come up with a clear cut action plan on how they ensure the safety norms in place, it is difficult for the government to give permission for them to resume operations. The quicker the better for the theatres' owners to get their act together as many lost their livelihood and even they suffered huge losses during the lockdown.
