After the construction of the building, a portion of the underground car park was unused, so he planned to have a mini cineplex there. The cineplex was built there after getting permission from the Mayor of Narayanganj City Corporation.[1] It was scheduled to inaugurated in Eid-ul-Adha, 2019 (August). This 35-seat mini theater is operated jointly by City corporation authority and CineMaker, a film production studio. This 4K theater with Dolby 7.1 surround sound system shows 3D films.[3] The theater has a coffee shop also.[4] It was opened on September 20, 2019. The first film showed in the theater was Surja Dighal Bari.[5] The mini theater was closed for a total of 14 months in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1]
