Cinemas in Lucknow have been allowed to operate at full capacity. Rather than the Uttar Pradesh government permitting cinemas to function at 100% capacity, it is the District Magistrate of Lucknow who has made the first move in the state. Other cities and towns or, perhaps, the state government is likely to follow suit. Till then, Lucknow is the only district in the state which has granted cinemas permission to admit people to full capacity.
