Speaking to The New Indian Express, Renaud Palliere, CEO of The Luxury Collections, PVR Cinemas, said, “Our intention is to create unique, customized experiences. Obviously, the sound systems and technology are standard equipment and feature across our properties. But what’s visible to the customers’ eyes is bespoke and sophisticated. The idea of Director’s Cut is to push the envelope, to create that ambiance, vibe, and experience for the audience.”
