Warner Bros eyeing Indian malls for entertainment spaces

Feb 20, 2020Updated May 27, 20251 min read

US entertainment giant Warner Bros is negotiating to establish family entertainment centers in Indian malls.

The firm has already been seeking 20,000–30,000sqft of mall real estate for some time now in the hopes of setting up branded spaces to show off its popular brands such as DC and Harry Potter.

Observers of the proposed move have speculated that the business will use the centers to assess the Indian market for its entertainment brand, considering the success of its expansive Warner Bros World indoor theme park in Abu Dhabi.

Warner Bros has not released a public statement about its Indian expansion plans.
