“PVR and Cinionic have a long-term alliance and together we are striving to elevate the cinematic experience for audiences in India. Previously, we added Barco Laser Projection as a step towards upgrading our proprietary premium extra-large screen format P[XL].With the experience now powered by CGS, the first in India at our iconic property, Priya and along with the best-in-class sound, screen, and 3D technologies, we’ve created a unique and differentiated format. It sets a new benchmark in truly magnificent, larger than life and immersive movie presentation for viewers in India,” commented Gautam Dutta, CEO, PVR Limited.
P[XL] powered by CGS is part of PVR’s larger mission to refresh its original location, reigniting its rich history and acclaim by focusing on a world-class visual experience. The reimagined single screen cinema represents PVR’s new initiative to refurbish existing theaters across the country into modern, premium spaces that honor their legacy in exhibition. Selecting CGS to power the P[XL] auditorium at Priya ensures guests will enjoy consistently stunning presentation, bright images, and content specially remastered for giant screens. The P[XL] powered by CGS auditorium boasts 300 premium seats, an additional 16 recliners, and features the latest in high-quality audio and 3D presentation technology.
