But what’s interesting is the branding of the mall - the mall has been named “Jio” World Drive, and the open air theatre is named “Jio” Drive In. It’s perhaps no surprise that Reliance has set up a high-end mall - Reliance is already the biggest retailer in India, and it’s looking to tap into India’s growing number of upwardly mobile consumers who have large disposable incomes. The mall also has an outlet named Hamley Play, a new concept of a play area by the UK-based toy store Hamley’s, which was acquired by Mukesh Ambani two years ago. Reliance has opened an ultra-premium gourmet grocery store named Freshpik in the mall, which has specially curated organic food and essential ingredients for international cuisines like Japanese, Italian, Korean, and Thai, breads, ice creams, artisanal cheese, chocolates from local and international producers, and frozen desserts. The mall integrates some of Reliance’s other retail plays as well. The mall spans across 17.5 acres at Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai, and houses 72 premium International and Indian brands such as Coach, Emporio Armani, Steve Madden, Gant, Dior, Clinique, Calvin Klein, SuperDry, Michael Kors, among others. The drive-in theatre is a part of the plush Jio World Drive, which is the first mall operated by Reliance in India. 1,200 for a car, and each car can have up to 4 occupants. There are special sound effects too - the theatre provides sound enhancement by broadcasting the soundtrack over FM signal through the car’s sound system. The drive-in theatre accommodates 290 cars, and has a 24 metre X 10 metre screen, which is one of the biggest cinema screens in the country. The theatre is being managed by PVR, and began operations today with the screening of Akshay Kumar-starrer Sooryavanshi. Dubbed Jio Drive In, the theatre has been built in Jio World Drive, Reliance’s plush shopping complex in the Bandra Kurla area. Reliance has opened India’s first rooftop drive-in theatre in Mumbai.
