History

PVR Saket

The company has its origin as Priya Cinema in Rahol mackija in South Delhi, which was bought by current owner Ajay Bijli's father in 1978, who also owned a trucking business, Amritsar Transport Co. In 1988, Bijli took over the running of the cinema hall, which was revamped in 1990, and its success led to the founding PVR Cinemas.[1][2]

In 2003, ICICI Ventures invested Rs 40 crore in PVR when Village Roadshow decided to pull out of the partnership.[3] In 2012, Kanakia group owned CineMAX cinema chain was bought by Cine Hospitality Private Ltd, a subsidiary of PVR Cinemas for 395 crore (US$47 million), making PVR the largest cinema chain in India.[4][5] In 2015, DLF group owned DT Cinemas was bought by PVR Cinemas for 500 crore (US$60 million).[6][7] Recently PVR Cinemas ventured into a new Cinema Concept under sub-brand of SuperPlex in Noida. The Cinema have 15 screens with IMAX, 4DX, Gold Class, Premiere and Playhouse(Specially for Kids). PVR Cinemas invested ₹48 crores in this new venture.
