Medium size hall. Good picture quality. The hall is clean. Staffs are well behaved and well maintained. Car parking available. It is located at Shyama Prasad road, near Ashutosh College. People can get bus and auto from here. Nearest metro station is Jatin Das Park.

Bijoli Cinema Hall is a popular cinema hall situated at South Kolkata, 38 Shyama Prasad Mukherjee road, next to Bhabanipur Police Station. Asutosh college, Jatin Das Metro station and Chittaranjan Seba Sadan ( hospital) are very near to this cinema hall. It is a pocket friendly, well maintained, A.C. cinema hall. One cannot expect the comfort of a multiplex in this place. The hall is quite big having one big screen and good sound system. The seating arrangement at Balcony is quite comfortable with push back arrangement. The hall has a big rest room with comfortable sitting arrangements infront of the Balcony. It is one of the oldest cinema halls of Kolkata. A very good place to watch movies with family. Ticket price is reasonable and has the arrangement of parking vehicles/ two wheelers. Online booking can be made. Recently the hall was converted to 3D projection.

Bijoli Cinema - belongs from a prime location of Bhawanipur,is a popular theatre located at 38, Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Road, Near Bhawanipur Police Station, Bhawanipur, South, Kolkata.They have 1 large screen for showcasing movies in morning, afternoon, evening and night.A medium size hall, has got nice ambience with a team of well behaved staff who are prompt in their service.As i heard, bijoli cinema is one of the heritage oldest cinema hall in Kolkata, in past only bengali commercial movie was released and showed but after renovating the whole scenario got changed, all types of movies now be seen here. No such space for parking seperately, so its better to come by public transport. Nearest metro station is JD park, just 5 min you need to walk from metro to reach the hall. Compared to current market competitors, they arranged things in cheaper ways than multiplexes.For the first time, i stepped inside this hall and took balcony to watch a bengali thriller movie.One thing i would like to mention that they have 3D facility also,marked above of the entrance though i didnt watched a 3D film so cant assure about that.AC is there plus they have sufficient quantity of fans which can serve the purpose surely.Balcony seems to be upgraded than older and the seats are push back to enjoy during a full length movie. But the rear stall is like old outdated one,carrying the tradition of 80s and 90s pattern. Its a mostly value for money movie theatre you can say about.Note: ( If you think this is helpful or you really want to appreciate this effort,dont hesitate to press the πŸ‘like button below.)

Midium hall , a little conjested and the biggest draw back being has a lot of stairs making it difficult for elderly and handicapped patrons , it plays latest Bengali and other movies and they have staff who cater very well during halftime for snacks and drinks , they are prompt with their service.Parking is a nightmare as there is no allocated space for it better to go by bus or take a cab or metro as it’s in the heart of the city. Also ticket prices are cheaper than malls

One of the oldest hall of Kolkata. After renovation the everything is developed here. Sit, food service , screen, ac , bathroom everything. And 3d is also available here, but not for every movie. Ticket price is very low in comparison to the halls. Nearest metro is jatin das park , and beside Bhawanipur police station. I love this place. I urge everyone to visit this hall. They are actually getting very less profit . Our frequent visit will make it good 😍

Its a nice pocket friendly AC movie hall, but if you expect something like multiplex then you have came to the wrong place. Theyve plastic seats with proper leg space at the rear stall and also have comfortable sofa kind of seats at the balcony stall. The hall is quite big with a big screen and Dolby digital sound as well. They also have clean rest room as well. Overall pocket friendly nice hall, where you can watch movies with your family and friends.

Good place to watch movie, rear stall and front stall have plastic chairs but balcony has push back chairs. Inside hall environment is good with a dolby digital sound facility.

The theater screen is big and good and the hall is big too... But the hall ambience is not up to the mark... It should be improved for a better movie experience..

Review β„–37

With top notch audio, seating, and 3D projection, this Cinema makes for an enjoyable experience. Sadly, however, this Cinema also follows the disgusting trend of terminating the movie before ending credits are over (or, for that matter, even started). Every movie is a culmination of the hard work of many people - these people deserve recognition. Not to mention, any movie with a post-credits scene is best pirated, given the present condition of Cinema Halls.

Its a movie theatre with mostly commercial film release. A large one at that but evidently has seen better days. On the main road beside the bhawanipur police station, so impossible to miss ones eye. Has a small balcony too. Seats are plastic except from the last few rows that are lined with thin cushions. Has clean bathrooms too. Hosted the kolkata film festival in 2019 and plans to keep it up in the coming years.

Review β„–41

Large screen for a single screen theatre and comfortable pushback seats at balcony make it a decent experience. The airconditioning could be better. Apparently the care was lacking because the audience was thin. It was a not-so-cold winter evening and it was feeling a trifle hot inside.What I appreciate is theres a modern yet reasonably peiced cafe in the making on the first floor.

Not a quite good hall. Have been once there. Made my mind not to go there any more. You cant even pull your seat and incline your back, which makes it difficult to sit in a comfortable position while watching. I would prefer NAVINA cinema hall to this, at the same ticket cost.

The hall is ok , but a special mention for the night employee on 25.2.19.I watched Aha re in the night show a and forgot my umbrella in the hall.Next day the other employees told me to wait for the night shift employee to report to duty as only he can tell, whether he found my umbrella.As soon as the man came he told me that he has safely kept my umbrella and promptly returned it to me.Thank you

Just best cinema hall at this price point (β‚Ή100 onwards), powered by DOLBY DIGITAL. I dont know why this cinema halls are empty and everyone gone crazy about !N0X and !M@X.

It is an old traditional hall well known to South Calcutta people used to show bengali films since decades. Located in a prime location. Recently renovated and current films are displayed. All sorts S of steps need to o be taken so that these types of halls in our city survives and not closed for want of spectators. I used to see films in these type of halls.

This cinema is a single screen one. The renovation work is going on to make it look more premium. The sound quality is audible, though lacks the 3D effect. The picture quality is decent for a price like that. The seatings in the balcony is good, cushiony, but the seating down below is of plastic chairs. The AC is in working state and works decently. The place is beside Bhowanipore Thana, and can be located quickly.

Recently refurbished and renovated, but the same are largely cosmetic. The air conditioning is poor, making do with a few split air conditioners, feels quite claustrophobic and restless, poor screen projection, the output of Dolby sound is hardly felt due to poor placement of sound boxes, apart from poor quality coffee and roadside chips, no other food is available, the sitting position is hardly comfortable.

Review β„–87

The screen is probably not the highlight here. The ambience, audience, screams of retro kolkata. For true bongs. It is dolby, for the ones who seek technology and the screen is good enough. Please dont compare it with an imax or something like that. The sound is however a bit on the lower side, which of course is not supposed to bother one. Best part, time your movie with a quick bite of kabiraji or cutlet at the Bijoli Grill, one of kolkatas oldest restos situated just adjoining the cinema theatre.

Somewhat decent hall. However when booking via BookMyShow you might notice, the whole lower stalls are booked. That is rarely the case as they only sell the balcony online. You might check out with them on the landline before booking. One more advise, try to avoid booking in the front row of the balcony. There is a railing there which obstructs visibility.
