The minister said that even if the permission is given to open the theatres, the public won't be coming to the theatres over coronavirus scare and the social distancing go for a toss.

"Even if the lockdown is lifted on May 29, no permission will be given to movie theatres and shopping malls where it is difficult to follow social distancing," the minister said. The minister hinted that the theatres may resume screening movies in September and October.
