Jamnagar
(UNI):
A
theatre
in
the
city,
the
first
one
in
Gujarat,
has
decided
to
screen
the
Aamir
Khan-starrer
Fanaa,
a
day
after
the
Supreme
Court
asked
the
Gujarat
government
to
provide
police
protection
to
cinemas
willing
to
show
the
movie,
on
which
Multiplex
Owners'
Association
had
imposed
a
ban.
''The
film
will
be
shown
this
afternoon.
Almost
50
per
cent
of
the
tickets
have
been
sold
out.
It
could
have
been
more
but
we
had
not
carried
out
any
publicity
campaign.
Police
protection
has
been
sought.
It
will
be
their
responsibility
to
prevent
any
untoward
incident,''
Amber
Cinemas
owner
Vimal
Maadam
told
UNI
over
phone.
He
said,
''It
is
my
business
to
run
my
cinema
house.
I
have
got
the
print
of
Fanaa
and
will
show
it.
I
have
nothing
to
do
with
what
the
Association
says
or
what
anybody
(Aamir
Khan)
has
views
about
an
issue.''
About
the
security
measures,
Deputy
Superintendent
of
Police
R
M
Pandey
said
two
police
inspectors
and
four
sub-inspectors,
apart
from
30
constables
will
be
deployed
at
the
theatre
as
part
of
the
bandobast.
''We
are
taking
all
precautionary
measures
to
ward
off
any
security
problem,''
he
said.
However,
Multiplex
Owners'
Association
president
Manubhai
Patel
said
the
multiplex
owners
are
still
firm
on
their
stand
and
will
not
screen
the
movie.
The
Single
Theatre
Owners'
Association
is
at
present
holding
a
meeting
to
assess
the
fallout
of
Ambar
cinema
decision.
All
theatre
owners
in
the
State
had
earlier
decided
not
to
release
Fanaa,
after
Aamir
had
made
remarks
in
support
of
Narmada
Bachao
Andolan
and
rehabilitation
of
dam
oustees.
