Cinépolis and RealD launch 3D film festival across 18 Indian cities
Cinépolis India and RealD will host a 3D Film Festival from October 23, 2026 across 23 cinemas in 18 cities, with all tickets priced at Rs 150. The lineup includes Spider-Man: The Lion King, Fast & Raaz 3, Jurassic World, Mufasa and Lilo in English, and the Hindi film Lilo & Stitch and Raaz 3.
The festival will play in Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Pune, Surat, Nagpur, Mumbai, Noida, Delhi, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Bhubaneswar, Vadodara, Kochi, Bhopal, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Gurugram. Ashish Misra, Head of Commercialisation at Cinépolis India, said fans return for the big screen with people waiting when the big scene comes, adding that the festival reaches from Bhopal to Bhubaneswar.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The Rs 150 ticket price is the standout detail: it drops the typical 3D surcharge, making the festival an affordability test for re-releases in a market where disposable income is stretched. Cinépolis and RealD are betting that familiar titles in premium format can fill halls in tier-2 cities like Bhubaneswar and Nagpur, not just metros. What remains unaddressed is how these screenings will compete with the looming Ramayana release that Misra himself has predicted will break records. The festival's real measure will be occupancy rates across the 23 cinemas from October 23 onwards.
