History [edit]

Prasads IMAX of the L. V. Prasad group, was inaugurated on July 25, 2003[5] at the premises of the historical "Hussain Sagar Thermal Power Station" after its demolition, which was supposed to be South India's first thermal power plant.

Features [edit]

The IMAX facility possesses a 6-channel sound system with an output of 12,000 watts of uncompressed digital surround sound.

Its IMAX screen achieved record attendance for the movies Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Spider-man 2 and Spider-man 3 and also achieved Number 1 status for highest box office for Spider-man 3 in the IMAX format internationally. [6]

In May 2011, Prasads became the first Green theatre in India by installation of a 100KWp Solar PhotoVoltaic power generation system on its rooftop.[7]
