This 1076 seat hall with an annual attendance of 850,000 and a turnover of Rs 15 million, started off in 1970 with \"Mera Naam Joker\" and the screening of the 9-45 p.m. show of \u201cTaare Zameen Par\u201d at Chanakya cinema here on night of December 27, 2007 marked the end of the journey for this cinema hall which marked high of good cinema. The father and son Rajesh and Aditya Khanna have been running this hall since 1970. The decision to close and vacate the place comes due to a Supreme Court judgment paving the way for the New Delhi Municipal Council to raze the theatre complex and build a multiplex-cum-mall on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis."}
