Extending Care Beyond Convenience

Family Reassurance Support, including optional updates for family members where appropriate
Special Assistance for Solo Senior Visitors, enabling them to enjoy a safe and independent outing

“Befikri Ki Azaadi” – Freedom to Enjoy Without Worry

The launch of the Roongta Senior Care Experience on Independence Day is a reflection of Roongta Cinemas’ belief that true freedom includes the freedom to participate, explore, socialise, and enjoy life without unnecessary barriers. With “Befikri Ki Azaadi”, Roongta Cinemas seeks to give senior citizens and their families greater confidence to make cinema outings a regular part of their lives—whether it is a family movie, an outing with friends, or simply a solo visit to enjoy a favourite film.

Building a Community, Not Just an Audience

The initiative is not only about physical infrastructure; it is about creating a culture of care, respect, and belonging. “We are not just making cinema accessible; we are making it more human. Every generation deserves to enjoy the magic of the big screen with comfort, confidence, and care. Through ‘Befikri Ki Azaadi’, we want senior citizens to feel that they can step out, enjoy themselves and experience cinema without worry. The Roongta Senior Care Experience is our small but meaningful step towards creating a warmer and more inclusive cinema culture.” — Mr. Sanjay Barjatya, CEO, Roongta Cinemas
