Vaani Kapoor is hopeful about 2021 and people coming back to the cinema halls after a long break. The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on Wednesday allowed cinema halls and theatres to operate with more people in fresh COVID-19 reopening guidelines, to be effective from February 1. This move comes after India began its vaccination drive and with the COVID-19 cases coming in control.
In a conversation with a news agency, Vaani Kapoor said that with the vaccine coming in, the 'confidence of people will slowly build' and the audience would want to go back to 'normal' things. "Community celebrations will come back in a big way and for Indians going to a theatre to watch a movie with friends and family is a huge thing. That's going to make a big comeback. They would want to come back to soak in an experience," Vaani told ANI.

Vaani also believes that the "tastes" must have changed when it comes to content consumption during the lockdown and in her opinion, 'new, fresh and clutter-breaking, disruptive content' will bring back people to the theatres.
