Mumbai's Famous Theatre Gaiety-Galaxy Shut? Here's What Owner Has To Say
Gaiety-Galaxy or G7 is one of the most popular single-screen complexes in Mumbai. If someone wants to know whether the film has impressed the masses or not, they should visit this theatre to get the reaction of the audience. Now, this popular theatre has been temporarily shut. A journalist named Narendra Gupta on Monday shared a picture on Instagram which has a notice written by Bandra police…
The Gaiety-Galaxy, a renowned cinema complex in Mumbai, has been temporarily shut down. The closure stems from the theatre's non-renewal of its license. A photograph of a notice posted by Bandra police outside the theatre depicts this notice, stating that the cinema will be closed for a few shows due to the lack of license renewal.
However, the theatre's executive director, Manoj Desai, clarified the situation to Hindustan Times. According to Desai, the real reason for the closure is not the license issue, but rather some cables in the theatre caught fire. The burning cables necessitate the procurement of new cables from Lohar Chawl, South Mumbai. Desai emphasized that this is a technical issue, and nothing more severe than that.
Established in 1972, Gaiety-Galaxy, also known as G7, began with three screens - Gaiety, Galaxy, and Gemini. Over time, four more screens were added, named Glamour, Gem, Gossip, and Grace. Consequently, the cinema complex was named G7. Over the years, the theatre has hosted numerous premieres, promotional events, and screenings, attracting celebrities and fans alike.
