What’s On in the Cinema?
Before Covid completely derailed everyone’s way of life, a very popular pastime among citizens of Karachi included frequent trips to the cinema. There was nothing quite as exciting as lining up outside your designated theater, popcorn and nachos in one hand, a pair of 3D glasses, surrounded by your friends and heaps of other people buzzing with anticipation. But then sadly, as already mentioned, Covid struck in the beginning of 2020 and completely changed the cinema viewing culture.
Cinema’s remained shut for a long part of the pandemic and even as they slowly gained back some of the normalcy of before, the true potential of these cinemas is yet to return. However, it is also great to note that the lack of traffic both surrounding and inside of Nueplex has decreased substantially so it is a lot easier to get a good spot. In case you’re not sure what to watch, we have you covered!

This big blockbuster is back on your screens , a whopping over a decade later by popular demand. The epic science fiction ordeal is written, produced, and co-edited by James Cameron and features the likes of Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez, and Sigourney Weaver.
It is unlikely that you have gone this long without seeing Avatar (as everyone and their dog has hyped up this film) but just in case, we won’t give away much – all you need to know is that film is set in a futuristic dystopian world, which was very common for films of this era.
