Most of the cinemas in the city are one-screen halls, but in recent times these have been giving way to large multiplexes.

Since 2000, 50 cinemas have shut down in the city. Mumbai is known for its entertainment industry so there are a lot of cinemas. Such One Example is Maratha Mandir which is known for playing Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge for almost 26 yearsbeing a single screen cinema and Multiplexes.
