Chennai will soon be the city that has the most theatres fitted with the Dolby Atmos sound system. According to data, the city is set to have almost 40 theatres with the technology by the end of the year.
‘SPI Cinemas, owners of Sathyam multiplex, plan to use Dolby Atmos for 37 screens in their Chennai and Coimbatore theatres in six months. And Inox and PVR Cinemas too could install the technology soon, taking the number of screens using it to around 40 in the city by the year end. This could possibly make Chennai the only city to have so many Atmos installations in one single location in the world… Chennai (is) also the first Indian city to get a Dolby Atmos theatre, an Atmos sound mixing studio and to make the first Indian movie, Sivaji 3D, using it’, said Country Manager of Dolby India Pankaj Kedia.
