Mumbai Gets A New Entertainment Landmark As Pvr Inox Unveils Megaplex At Sky City Mall, Borivali
22 August 2025: PVR INOX, India’s largest and most premium cinema exhibition company, proudly announces the opening of its state-of-the-art 10-screen Megaplex at the Sky City Mall in Borivali East, Mumbai. Developed under the Capex by PVR INOX model, this property is a direct investment by PVR INOX into building, designing, and operating a flagship cinema destination, strengthening its commitment to innovation, ownership-led excellence, and long-term value creation in strategic urban markets.
Sky City Mall, developed by Oberoi Realty, is Mumbai’s newest lifestyle hub, a space where premium feels personal. Sprawling across a million square feet and strategically located 17 kilometers from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and connected well with Devipada Metro Station and Western Express Highway, the mall offers a refined blend of global retail, gourmet dining, and world-class entertainment, all under one roof. Bringing together a blend of Indian and global brands with lifestyle and entertainment experiences, the mall caters to discerning customers seeking experiences, connections and inspiration. Anchoring the entertainment offering, the PVR INOX Megaplex is a marquee development spread across 43,500 square feet, comprising foyers, lounges, and 10 uniquely designed auditoriums with a combined capacity of 1372 seats.
This premium multiplex offers a diverse format mix across ten screens: two plush Insignia auditoriums, one IMAX with Laser, an immersive 4DX auditorium, and six mainstream screens. It features all-laser projection throughout, including IMAX and 4DX formats, with Dolby 7.1 sound for rich, dynamic audio across auditoriums, and a proprietary immersive sound system in IMAX. The IMAX with Laser experience is powered by a next-generation 4K laser projection system with a custom optical engine and proprietary IMAX technologies, delivering sharper visuals, deeper contrast, and vibrant, exotic colors. IMAX’s advanced surround sound system further enhances immersion with exceptional clarity and dynamic range.
The design of the cinema embraces a youthful, contemporary aesthetic, with vibrant pastel palettes, immersive digital and static artworks, and an open, fluid layout that complements the energy of the mall’s architecture. Interior finishes reflect modern sophistication through high-quality tiles with metallic inlays, fluted and iridescent glass panels, and metal mesh patterns that lend texture and distinction. Auditorium themes vary across formats—blue and black dominate the IMAX with Laser screen, while the 4DX space uses bold red and black tones to match its high-impact multi-sensory features. The Insignia auditoriums are designed in gold and blue, with plush recliners and curated luxury touches.
Commenting on the launch Mr. Ajay Bijli, Managing Director, PVR INOX Limited, said: “The launch of our 10-screen Megaplex at Sky City Mall is a proud milestone in our journey to redefine cinema in India. This isn’t just a new multiplex—it’s a vibrant, design-forward destination where technology, luxury, and youthful energy converge to create truly immersive storytelling spaces. Mumbai continues to be a cornerstone market for us, and with this new launch under our Capex model, we reaffirm our commitment to building aspirational cinemas that resonate with modern audiences.
