The IMAX Corporation and Cine Star Cinema Pakistan have announced an agreement to install three digital IMAX theatre systems in new projects in Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi, beginning in 2013. The announcement marks the opening of IMAX’s first commercial theatres in Pakistan.

“Cine Star, one of the top cinema chains in Pakistan, is a strategic partner that shares our vision of delivering the ultimate cinematic experience to movie-goers,” said Richard L. Gelfond, CEO of IMAX. “We look forward to expanding in Pakistan – a market which we believe provides exciting opportunities for growth.”
