Demolition of Four Star Cinema Hall in 10 Seconds
The iconic Four Star Cinema Hall in Purnia, Bihar, was once the largest cinema hall in North Bihar. Built in 1984, it was a dream come true for the residents of Purnia and the people of North Bihar. However, in a matter of seconds, the historic cinema hall was demolished, leaving the locals in dismay. The memories associated with the Four Star Cinema Hall, including those of legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan, are now a thing of the past.
The Legacy of Four Star Cinema Hall
Constructed 40 years ago, the 70mm screen of the Four Star Cinema Hall was a symbol of pride for Purnia. It was once considered the biggest cinema hall in North Bihar, attracting movie enthusiasts from far and wide. However, the closure of the cinema hall in recent years has left a void in the hearts of the people. The swift demolition of the iconic building has saddened the community who cherished its cultural significance.
The End of an Era
The construction of Four Star Cinema Hall was overseen by Dr. Mohan Rai, a renowned doctor from Purnia. The hall gained fame when Dr. Rai saved the life of Amitabh Bachchan during a film shoot accident in America. Bachchan, in gratitude, inaugurated the cinema hall with a free screening of his movie “Sharaabi”. After Dr. Rai’s passing, the cinema hall and its land were sold, marking the end of an era in Purnia. The demolition of Four Star Cinema Hall has brought a sense of loss to the community, as they witness the transformation of their heritage into a new chapter.
पूर्णिया का फोर स्टार सिनेमा हॉल, जो उत्तर बिहार का सबसे बड़ा सिनेमा हॉल था, महज 10 सेकंड में डिमोलिश हो गया। इस हॉल के निर्माण का क्रेडिट पूर्णिया के प्रसिद्ध डॉक्टर मोहन राय को जाता है। इसका उद्घाटन करने के लिए सदी के महानायक अमिताभ बच्चन भी पूर्णिया आने वाले थे, लेकिन सुरक्षा कारणों से वह नहीं आ सके। इस हॉल के डिमोलिश हो जाने से पूर्णिया के लोगों में काफी मायूसी है।
