Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu — Galalite Cinema Screens, a global leader in cinema screen technology, proudly announces the world’s first installation of the Mirage XDL 2.3 screen at the newly renovated Shreepathy Cinemas in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu.

Following extensive renovations, Shreepathy Cinemas, a beloved two-screen theatre in Thanjavur, has enhanced its auditoriums with Galalite’s cutting-edge technologies:

  • Mirage XDL 2.3 – The world’s first installation of Galalite’s next-generation RGB laser-optimized screen. With a 2.3 gain, it is engineered for HDR and ultra-bright RGB laser projections. It supports high brightness while reducing speckle, delivering richer colors, brilliant whites, natural skin tones, and immersive depth. Validated through Galalite’s proprietary Cumulative Gain Unit (CGU) method, the XDL 2.3 ensures uniform brightness from center to edge, eliminating hotspots. Powered by Lensray™ Technology, it offers precise light diffusion and sharp clarity, so every seat feels like the best in the house.
  • Mirage 2.7 – A high-gain silver screen crafted for both 2D and 3D projection. With its ability to enhance contrast, luminance, and color saturation, it delivers a consistently immersive experience across the auditorium, making it ideal for versatile programming.

“At Galalite, we constantly strive to push the boundaries of cinema technology. Partnering with Shreepathy Cinemas for the world’s first Mirage XDL 2.3 installation is a proud milestone for us. This innovation sets a new global benchmark in brightness, color performance, and immersive viewing,” said Yusuf Galabhaiwala, Director of Operations, Galalite Screens.

Mr. Shreepathy, Founder of Shreepathy Cinemas, added:
“Shreepathy Cinemas has always been about delivering the best to our audiences. With our renovations and the installation of Galalite’s Mirage XDL 2.3 and Mirage 2.7, we are thrilled to welcome movie lovers back to a cinema that is brighter, sharper, and more immersive than ever.”

The reopening of Shreepathy Cinemas with Galalite’s next-generation screens demonstrates a renewed commitment to bringing world-class cinema technology to audiences worldwide.
