Rajhans to Add 65 Additional Screens across 15 Locations by Mid-2026

In a landmark moment for Gujarat’s entertainment landscape, Rajhans Cinemas has introduced IMAX to Surat.

Rajhans Cinemas currently has 160 screens across India and new multiplexes are coming up in Noida, Gurgaon, Chandigarh, Mumbai, Dehradun, Chennai, Bangalore, Pune, Vizag, Hyderabad among others. 

According to the company, 65 additional screens across 15 locations are under development and slated for completion by mid-2026.

Housed within Rajhans Cinemas Precia, one of India’s largest 14-screen multiplexes with over 3,000 seats, the IMAX auditorium offers a seating capacity of 400 audience. The auditorium features cutting-edge IMAX 3D technology, an expansive curved screen and ultra-crisp laser projection, delivering breathtaking visual clarity and contrast like never before, said the company.

Until recently, IMAX was a luxury reserved for metro cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Ahmedabad, often requiring movie enthusiasts from Surat to travel long distances to experience the format. But that’s changed. Since its debut, Rajhans IMAX has witnessed packed shows, loyal repeat audiences and enthusiastic word-of-mouth for these new cinematic marvels in the city.

For Rajhans Cinemas, introducing IMAX is a bold extension of its mission to bring the best of the world to local audiences.

“This isn’t just a new screen, it’s a landmark in Surat’s cinematic journey.” said Jayesh Desai, Chairman of Rajhans Group. “With IMAX, we are not merely elevating the movie experience, we are introducing a new era of storytelling that engages all the senses. It’s our promise to Surat: world-class entertainment, right here at home.”

With the Surat addition and more screens opening nationwide, the move signals a shift. Regional cities now expect and deserve world-class entertainment and retail players are capitalising this consumption shift.
