Which took place in the country’s cinemas, the screening of the film was postponed.
He continued: “Considering these circumstances, when the decision to release this film was made again in July of this year, which I personally opposed, in the current situation, although the choice of release time was not willing, it was our choice.” Nowruz screening conditions are different from previous years, and the films that are included in the Nowruz composition are not suitable for the box office. We anticipated this situation and that is why we released our film earlier.
Babaian emphasized: “Ant-eater” can be seen well along with the films selected for Nowruz this year. However, automatically with the start of Nowruz movies, the number of our theaters will decrease. At present, we have 170 cinemas, which naturally will decrease when Nowruz movies are added to the screen and 10 movies are to be screened at the same time. Of course, thank God, and with the preparation of the union council, there are only four or five films that will be released in cinemas at the same time as the Nowruz release, and the rest of the films such as “Dynamite”, “Guidance Patrol” and “Everything” that were on the screen a long time ago. They must be replaced.

I hope this happens. We follow the movie cyberspace ads, but fortunately we got a good answer from it.
The cinema producer also said about his other activities: “Considering the current conditions of cinema, I do not intend to make a new film at the moment.” Today’s cinema is a critical situation where many films are waiting to be screened, and I prefer to wait for this to change to make a new film.
