About this map
The map shows every cinema in India that sold tickets on BookMyShow or District when we read both on 23 September 2026: 4,263 of them, plus one cinema that a local check found open but selling only at the counter. Colours show the chain: PVR, INOX, Cinépolis, other chains, and independents.
Two more layers are off by default. Unverified listings (3,864) are places that open map data calls a cinema but that do not sell tickets online; some are open, many have closed. Closed cinemas (61) have evidence of closing. Neither ever appears in "near me".
