The multiplex strike, which began in the month of February, finally came to an end early this morning (June 5, 2009). This news was confirmed by a fax message by the production house UTV Motion Pictures to the IANS. The message read, “Strike Over. Movies to release next week... Awaiting more details.” Our sources also confirm that the strike has indeed been called off after the producers and the multiplex owners have reached an agreement to share the profits. Official confirmation on the profit sharing details is awaited.

With the strike over it is now believed that that films could hit the screens from June 12th onwards.
