The wait is finally over. After years of uncertainty and a notable absence, IMAX is officially returning to Hyderabad, and this time, it's arriving through AMB Cinemas.
The announcement has sent waves of excitement across the city's film-loving community. Hyderabad has always had a massive, almost insatiable demand for the IMAX format. From the early days of The Dark Knight and Avatar to the blockbuster clashes of Rajamouli's epics, the city's audience has consistently proven its hunger for larger-than-life cinematic experiences. Now, with AMB stepping in to bring the format back, the craze is only set to get bigger.
Audiences will finally be able to experience their favorite premium format once again—sharper images, deeper contrast, and the iconic IMAX immersion that no ordinary screen can replicate. The return of IMAX is being celebrated as a homecoming for Hyderabad's serious movie buffs, who have long felt the void left by the absence of a true, high-quality IMAX screen in the city.
A Power-Packed Lineup for 2027
What makes the comeback even more electrifying is the slate of films already lined up for next year. Tollywood and Indian cinema are gearing up for a blockbuster 2027, and Hyderabad's IMAX screen will be at the center of the action.
Highly anticipated films including #Spirit (Sandeep Reddy Vanga's next with Prabhas), #Varanasi (the spiritual action drama), #Dragon (Pradeep Ranganathan's Tamil sensation), and #RAAKA (the gritty action entertainer) are all confirmed for release on the format. Each of these films promises breathtaking visuals, and watching them on IMAX will be nothing short of a feast for Hyderabad movie lovers.
Bookings Expected to Be Absolute Madness
Trade analysts and exhibitors are already predicting that IMAX bookings for these films will witness absolute madness. Given the city's pent-up demand and the quality of the lineup, tickets are expected to sell out within minutes of release.
Hyderabad, get ready. IMAX is back. And it's going to be legendary.
