Karan Johar urges Delhi government to reopen theatres, says 'cinemas are safe'

Bollywood director and producer Karan Johar, on Thursday, urged the Delhi government to allow cinemas to reopen after the yellow alert was announced in the state. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday announced strict restrictions in the city in view of the rising COVID-19 cases and a surge in the Omicron variant in the city. CM Kejriwal announced that spas, gyms, and cinema halls, that were earlier operating at 50 percent capacity, will be shut down. This announcement has come after the national capital witnessed a test positivity rate of more than 0.5% from the past two days.
