May not be the first one

Yeah, completely agree with others. PVR CINEMAS is not the first multiplex, I can name three such theatre complexes from rajahmundry(Rambha complex - 3 screens) and kakinada(devi theatre complex-used to be 4 screens, and anand theatre complex - 4 screens), where I was brought up. Sandilyabpk3 (talk) 02:56, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

5 screen Multiplex - Maris Theatre Complex - in Trichy, Tamilnadu predates the contemporary Multiplexes as discussed in this article and was unusual and way ahead of its times for a smaller town to have a five screen 'plex. Though I'm not sure if it is still operational.

--Dministrator (talk) 20:24, 6 September 2008 (UTC) Mutiplexes have existed in Chennai at least since the 70s or 80s. Examples of these include 'Satyam', 'Devi', 'Ega', 'Safire', 'Udhayam' complexes amongst others. Not sure why PVR is credited with being the first multiplex.182.68.237.91 (talk) 17:27, 15 November 2012 (UTC)Arun Unni plz tell me when was the opening of pvr priya vasant vihar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.201.85.22 (talk) 02:58, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List

Do we really need a list of where they are? After all, it isn't a telephone directory... --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 13:14, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Creating a list within the page is not advisable. But gallery can be expanded. RPSkokie (talk) 15:48, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merger

Propose SPI Cinemas and CineMAX to be merged into this page. Raghavan(Talk) 05:48, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This was incorrectly listed at WP:CFD. The original rationale is that the two cinema chains no longer exist and have been merged into this one. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 17:18, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree to the thought of merging SPI Cinemas & CineMax as old entities do not exist. The subjects can be part under "history of PVR" as a small portion. Anilkumarvyas1 (talk) 12:29, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with the merger of SPI Cinemas to PVR Inox Limited. It has been almost since completion of merger and even the merged properties are rebranded as PVR now. Doesn't make sense to have a separate page for SPI Cinemas. Helloworld10 (talk) 21:10, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: I oppose merging SPI Cinemas into this, agreeing with Paradise Chronicle's rationale. Corporate mergers don't always warrant article mergers

Kailash29792 (talk) 18:34, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose merger with SPI cinemas article on the SPI Cinemas is fairly informative and can inform about the history of one part of PVR.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 18:17, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have undone the merges of SPI Cinemas and CineMAX into this article by @Raghavan2010. They claim there is a consensus to merge, but I do not see any clear consensus either way. This should have been closed by an uninvolved editor ideally, given there were editors who disagreed. Soni (talk) 21:33, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

PVR INOX Limited → PVR INOX – The full legal name need not always be the general name. The website itself uses my suggested name. Kailash29792 (talk) 05:24, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

About the merger between PVR and INOX articles

I just saw someone has planned to include the previously mentioned INOX Leisure into PVR articles since both of these companies has already merging together under one umbrella. Maybe it's time to have that merger to be proposed while at the same time to do some copy-editing on both of those features. VernardoLau (talk) 18:50, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 19:03, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be re-split

The article is currently a mess. There's way too much going on, and the timeline is completely not understandable for a reader. The history of INOX and PVR are separately distinct enough that it makes way more sense to have INOX Leisure and PVR Cinemas as separate pages, and then this article for the merger and history post 2023. Both the previous companies definitely pass GNG, so notability should be established for all three articles.

See Vodafone Idea, Vodafone India and Idea Cellular for a similar case. Soni (talk) 21:24, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Given the current limitations that prevent the existence of three distinct pages, I fully support the creation of three comprehensive articles: one dedicated to PVR Cinemas, another focused on INOX Leisure, and a third addressing PVR INOX Ltd. This approach is crucial to ensuring that all relevant aspects of these entities are thoroughly explored, providing a well-rounded and detailed perspective for the general reader. By maintaining these separate articles, we can ensure that each entity is given the appropriate attention and analysis it deserves, thereby enhancing the reader's understanding and offering a more nuanced view of the subject matter.
