Akshay Kumar's Bell Bottom screened at mobile cinema hall in Ladakh

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar on Sunday said he was thrilled that his recently released film Bell Bottom was screened at a travelling cinema hall in Ladakh, touted as the world’s highest mobile theatre.

Last week, Ladakh got its first inflatable cinema with a private company, PictureTime Digiplex, installing the theatre in the union territory.

The company installed the theatre in Leh and claimed it to be the highest altitude theatre in the world, installed at a height of 11,562 feet.

Kumar’s Bell Bottom, which released theatrically in the country on 19 August, was screened for the Indian Army and CISF personnel on 22 August.

The actor took to Twitter and described the mobile theatre as “an amazing feat”.
