PVR INOX ignites screens with fiery Kantara-themed logo ahead of Chapter 1 release
This Independence Day weekend, PVR INOX — India’s largest and most premium cinema exhibitor — is turning up the heat, quite literally. In collaboration with Hombale Films, the multiplex chain has reimagined its iconic logo with the fire elements from Kantara, creating a striking prelude to one of the most awaited films of 2025, Kantara: Chapter 1, which hits theatres on October 2.
Starting Thursday, August 14, audiences watching Coolie and War 2 across all PVR INOX cinemas will be treated to this fiery spectacle before the film begins. Enabled by state-of-the-art projection systems and digital mastering technology, the animation transforms the brand identity into an immersive storytelling element that reflects the raw power and cultural depth of Kantara. The move is designed to heighten excitement for Kantara: Chapter 1, the much-anticipated follow-up to the 2022 blockbuster, which became a cultural phenomenon for its unique blend of folklore, action, and visual grandeur.
Speaking about the campaign, Gautam Dutta, CEO – Revenue & Operations, PVR INOX Ltd., said, “Cinema is more than just entertainment it is an emotion that unites a nation. At PVR INOX, we constantly strive to create larger-than-life experiences that go beyond the screen. By infusing the elemental energy of Kantara into our iconic logo, we are honouring India’s rich cultural narratives while setting new benchmarks for how films are celebrated. This is not just a logo change; it’s an invitation for audiences to step into an unforgettable world of storytelling.”
Vijay Kiragandur, Producer & Founder, Hombale Films, added, “We are honoured that India’s largest multiplex chain, which has the biggest audience interface across the globe, has decided to celebrate Kantara in this unique manner. It is indeed a special idea that is nothing less than a celebration of India’s rich culture, especially on this Independence Day. It is a matter of great pride when you can celebrate stories you truly believe in with partners as big as PVR INOX. With this, the world will embrace storytelling that is deeply rooted in our culture.”

With initiatives like these, PVR INOX and Hombale Films are proving that cinema magic begins even before the movie starts — and this time, it’s blazing bright.
