Madhumita Cinema Hall temporarily closed

Madhumita, one of the oldest cinema halls of Dhaka, will be temporarily closed from this Friday.

Iftekhar Uddin Noushad, the owner of Madhumita Cinema Hall, told The Daily Star, "The football World Cup will be starting within the next couple of days. During this time, newly released films will not be performing well, as people will be busy watching the World Cup. That is why, during this time, I will be doing renovations on my cinema hall, both internally and externally. So, I have decided to shut the hall down temporarily. The cinema hall will remain closed till January of next year. Afterwards, it will reopen again."
